Rejected Money

NPR via Greg Mankiw:

On today's Planet Money, we visit an underground vault that's full of money nobody wants.

The money — bags and bags of dollar coins — is the result of a 2005 law that requires the U.S. Mint to print a series of coins bearing the likeness of each U.S. president.

Politicians have way too much time on their hands if they are making such dumb laws.
