Penny Hater!!! Fire away people.

I'm guessing this guy is no realcent member. However, we share a common goal of removing millions of pennies from circulation.

I couldn't even finish watching that guy. But between him and some of the comments from the sheeple, it is apparent we are beyond the point of no return... 
Nobody in this country is the least bit upset as to why...

| I don't think we have anything to worry about over either the composition or elimination of the penny anytime soon, if this session of Congress is any indication. For the first time in our history, they broke for their August recess without passing a single one of the 12 appropriations bills needed to keep the country running, so does anyone really think Congress will get this done, unless some congressperson sticks it in a bill so deep it won't be noticed until it becomes law? |

With the current state of the currency, the trade deficit, the national deficit, and the financial industry, I wonder of some of the Rat Basturd politicians haven't fled the country...... But then we can only hope, can't we  |

| Wow, all I can say is wow. What really got me was when he said something about coins in the past being worth their metal content, and how this was "old thinking." People like him are the reason why America is the way it is... |

You're all missing an obvious point. We should support this thinking in the hopes that the penny disappears and makes our stashes worth mucho $$$. |

To quote one of the earlier posts, "What a douce" That's exactly what this guy is.
To be cold and logical though, and as much as I enjoy sorting coppers, there may be good reasons to discontinue the penny. Part of me thinks we should stop producing the penny, nickel and the paper dollar. This would force Americans to come face to face with the implications of inflation and excessive money supply.
It is not the penny's fault it costs more than a cent - it's the dollar's!
