What type of ballot was used in Florida during the 2000 presidential election that led to hanging chads?
The ballots that produced the handing chads were paper tabulating machine cards, commonly called IBM cards or computer cards. The voter was supposed to punch out a perforated tab or chad to make his vote. The chad was supposed to be completely removed to create a clean hole in the card, but some people punched the card, but left the chad hanging. These hanging chads interfered with the machine used to read and tabulate the vote cards.

What is the purpose of a government?
The fundamental purpose of government is the maintenance of basic security and public order.Government provides a system in which individuals give a portion of their freedom in order to pursue needs and wants without the fears that are inherent in a state of anarchy.In an anarchic system, individuals must protect and provide completely for themselves, and those with greater power are able to offend those with lesser power without consequence. In a system of government, the freedom to acquire and offend at will is subjugated to the will of the governed; and, in return, the governed are better able to produce without fear of loss.Therefore, at its most basic level, the purpose of government is to protect the people from threats, both within and without.Note on edits: Individuals can pursue life, liberty, happiness and property (blending Locke and Jefferson) without government. Government cannot not grant happiness.
What is the value of a silver dollar with a G stamp?
By "stamp" I assume you're referring to what's called a mint mark, the letter that indicates which mint struck the coin. But there's never been a G mint mark on any US coin so whatever you have may have been added by someone using a metal punch. If so, that would make it an altered coin worth only its metal value, about 75% of the current price of 1 oz of silver. That changes every day so you need to consult a newspaper or precious-metals site for an up-to-date value. In any case please post a new question with the coin's date for a more accurate answer.
