From the article: "The language regarding the fakes is governmentese at its best. In the words of the plan, it would review 'efforts to detect and combat the counterfeiting of U.S. coins and currency in the United States and abroad,' and in a first, they stated that they 'will examine the counterfeiting of rare or investment-grade coins, U.S.-made and otherwise.'"
Interesting... but I have a feeling that nothing will ever come of this.

From what I understand, China's coins and currency are also being counterfeited. If they can't stop the counterfeits in their own currency I wouldn't expect to them to make stopping the fakes in foreign currency a priority.

Congresspeople and Senators come fairly cheap...just look at some of the piddling payments they receive for voting certain ways on particular bills. Unfortunately none of the wealthier people in our industry seem to want to buy enough politicians to make something happen. Our best bet is if we get tied in to something like software piracy where there is enough interest.

My understanding is that it's currently perfectly legal to make any sort of counterfeit in China. Just driving this underground would be a giant step in the right direction.
It would also help China by making their products appear to be better or at least that they recognize trademarks, patents, and sovereign currency.
A lot of people just won't touch anything made in Chine due to the per- ception that it is inferior or possibly even dangerous. Obviously counter- feits fit into the dangerous category.

If the Secret Service were to bust a few of the people selling multiple counterfeits on fleaBay and get a perp walk on the evening news, it would give some of the others pause. They would continue to sell at the flea markets and gun shows and the Chinatowns all across America, but some of the sales would be eliminated. And, it would eliminate the claim "The Secret Service does not care anymore."

Maybe that colonial currency that said "To Counterfeit Is Death" was a good solution at the time and needs to be brought back.

Instead of eliminating the dollar bill, let's make the dollar coins "cheaper" to manufacture!

Perhaps we will admonish the foreign governments.

King George I would have said "This will not stand". Obviously someone is at least able to say this must not stand.

Not when the government and special interest are involved.

Hopefully they will come up with something other than posturing and kicking the can down the road (what the usual outcome is).
