    Great idea! Ideas like this are what remind me that we can always be more conservative with our resources in the world.

    Clever kid. I wish I was as accomplished as him haha. Hopefully the government actually makes an effort to listen to his advice to save the 200 million each year. Yeah, 200 million may not seem as much when you think about all of the money the government spends each year, but it's such a simple switch and it's saving tax dollars so why not :p

    Exactly, the government completely lacks common sense though.

    Why be careful about spending when it isn't your own money?

    Teen to government: Change your typeface, save millions

    Cool idea, but unfortunately pretty useless. The applications for this idea are limited to places like classroom handouts where font really doesn't matter too much. But in most applications, the cost of switching fonts undoubtably outweighs the savings. It may sound silly, but font choice is extremely important and profoundly affects the reader psychologically. We will not see entities like the government change traditional fonts for this reason. Just to make the point with a rather extreme example, imagine doing your tax returns in comic sans. Just.... no.

    But for places like classrooms, this is a great idea and one that I hope many read about and implement.
