U.S. Mint Cashes In On Political Correctness

Anticipation Tepid For Newest $1 Coin Collectors Excited, But Not All Banks

The Mint is in the process of progressively issuing dollar coins in honor of each President. They have just released the second in the series, which features the likeness of John Adams. But to avoid getting feminists offside and, perhaps in recognition of the fact that many a president’s wife has really worn the presidential trousers (do you really think Ronald Reagan ran his own show?), the Mint will also issue “First Spouse” coins. However, the PC police realized that this could offend fans of Presidents who, for various reasons, didn’t have a wife. So to shut them up, the “single” chaps will have a companion coin depicting Lady Liberty.
