It is interesting to read it is not a government issue, but a stagnation one. Coins are not moving. Maybe like toilet paper, businesses that function a lot on coins have started to stockpile more than they need.

I have not really paid cash for anything in this country in about ten years now other than tips and at my favorite Chinese restaurant that annoyingly does not accept cards. If you think of things that can carry germs around, cash has to be near the top of that list right?
