Nah, I'm with Darth. It was a commentary on how politicians have the tendency to concern themselves with meaningless domestic matters (especially over things like how Americans feel about their patriotism and money) when there's real world problems out there that are effect lives, livelihoods and, well, stuff that matters.
It's also odd. If not mistaken the US Mint and Federal Reserve have more to do with the printing of money, what it looks like, and such more than the Federal Government and the President himself do.
