because then everything will cost 5.95, no more .5% sales tax. If no one wants their Penny's give them to me. if for one year 365 days, the number of Penny's I had doubled, at the end of the year I'd be a millionaire.
day 1: 1 penny
day 2: 2 pennies
day 3: 4 pennies
day 4: 8 pennies
you get the drift

DUH... pennies are good luck. America has enough bad luck as it is. if we stop making and finding pennies heads up, think about the state this country would be in!!! oh- and don't forget the wishing well..... if we don't have pennies to throw in there none of our wishes will come true.
you don't want us to be a country of bad luck having, no wish getting people ... or do you????
oh man.. one more thing... there are those things at the zoo.. and other vacation type places where you smash the penny to print the name of the place that you've gone to visit... know what I'm talking about??? we gotta have those... or we'd never remember where we'd been on vacation.. that would be sad. a country of people going to the zoo like a hundred times a year... only b/c we forgot we went b/c we didn't have that lil penny w/ the imprint on it...
come on .. pennies rock

Hand it in if I felt the position ought to look after onto it responsibly, otherwise, publish an commercial and ask the keep if i'd publish something there proper to the lacking wallet (funds now not pronounced). If it were in a wallet, i imagine the guy may properly set up it. basic lost earnings this volume, i ought to as a rule remodel the police branch with a depiction of the sphere in which it became once pronounced. yet something $one hundred or a lot less, in an section the position i did not believe it may well be spoke of, i ought to carry. I basically at present got here across $21.00 flying free contained in the vehicle vehicle parking zone of a strip mall. a pal became once with us as we were going to the films, so we used the funds to pay for tickets for all 3 people...

because we have a decimal system. (up to ten, in single increments)
If we were to drop the penny, we would have to use a two cent piece or a three cent piece to replace it.
increments of two or three at a time, does not fit our system.
I believe that we should have a two and a three cent piece in circulation, but we also need to have the penny.

the senator from AZ is attempting to do just this(AZ is the largest producer of copper, the main metal in the nickel.)
Any questions?
Pitfalls?
It will be the largest inflationary disaster to ever hit the U.S. since the great depression!This coupled with the current world instability/oil speculation could bring about the 2nd great depression.
