One of my teachers told me this a day or two ago in class. I don't wanna call him a liar, but I find it hard to believe, and haven't heard it anywhere else yet.
Supposedly the U.S. is gonna stop making pennies because of the simple premise that it costs more than a penny to make a penny.
I guess I can see the logic in that, but how would people give exact change then? My only guess is that they'd have to round all the time now, which I suppose wouldn't be too bad...but like taxes, I'm sure they'd round all prices and costs up. :angry: So if something was 14.96 it becomes 15.00. Hell, I bet if it was 14.92 they'd still round up. Who knows.
Anyway, anyone else here this?
