The feds have been doing it for a looong time!
And it still costs the US Treasury almost 2 cents to make a penny, so if you can do it cheaper, then...
well.... at the risk of being insufferably pedantic, it cost the us treasury .81 cents to make a 1 cent coin. just sayin'

We should make sand resistors with something cheaper.
More likely someone will market resistors made with pure sand from BoraBora in a red ceramic case that guarantees better tone. Starting at $12 each, depending on wattage.

I have a line of resistors coming out designed for parallel use only, they have very Low ESR , rated for .0001% distortion down to -42 HZ and the really great secondary feature is if you grind them up in your food processor they make a great meat rub for BBQ's, really!

I have secured a marketing name of " tone & taste"
