Not gonna lie, I agree with this. Pennies are useless.
You know what they say, “even a broken penny is right twice a dollar”
Or something like that
Thanks to Trump, America doesn’t make any cents.
The reason we continued to make the penny is to maintain zinc production, which is important for wartime manufacturing.
By ending penny production, it will save money, but may compromise our future ability to wage war.
So as soon as the zinc lobbyist pay him, he’ll back out.
What about galvanized steel though? You know, like traffic signs, light posts, some cars, various construction materials etc? You could use zinc in so many ways. I expect those applications would also take a lot more zinc than the pennies ever could.
What portion of our zinc production goes to manufacturing pennies?
someone tell him he’s just copying canada now
Maybe he should think of joining Canada instead of trying to take us over.
Holy fucking shit, a broken clock moment?
I think like more someone in his government thought they need to do something people don’t hate and the only reasonable thing Trump didn’t have a tantrum about when it was brought up was the futility of the existence of pennies.
Trump thinks pennies are useless because he wasn’t allowed to use them in a strip club.
This will require rounding up to the nearest nickel… Which costs $0.14 to make 🙄
Australia did this in the… 90s? I wanna say 90s. We had 1c and 2c coins, but they decided it was costing too much to produce them. So they phased them out gradually I think.
Idk if it’ll save any money, costs pennies to manufacture
I bring forth, “the pee pee!”
A durable replacement for the penny…a Plastic Penny! “Pee, pee!” Get it?
