THE PENNY???
value is less than what it costs to produce it

Get rid of the penny and the US $1 paper bill. That costs too much to make also.
$1 coins last longer.

I say keep it--without the penny, retailers and other businesses and organizations will simply round up their prices. The only way I could favor getting rid of the penny would be if retailers, insurers, hospitals, etc, were all required to round *down* their prices instead of up. Since that would never happen, we need to keep the penny.

I assumed you were going to ask about dis-banning nuclear weapons...was I mistaken. Is dis-banning the penny an effort to reduce the cost of defense spending...can't see how else it relates to the military.
To answer your question...no, keep the darn thing.

All the way disbanding. It's just common cents (how many people will make this pun?)

no, it will only make prices rise if we do it
