[Willie Green]

I do not want to retire the penny. Once you do, the nickel will become the new penny. It will be everywhere ... and worthless.
And, I pick up pennies from the ground. Anyone who does not is an elitist.

I still bend over to pick up pennies despite ranting for years that they're so worthless that they SHOULD be abolished, and make the nickel the new penny on purpose. (the paper dollar should be mothballed in favor of a dollar coin as well)

But I could be persuaded otherwise if we banned the use of royal images on our currency, especially before some bozo proposes making some money with Klinton's or Bush's mugshot.

Get them idiots off our money. They're the ones who distroyed it's value anyway.

Bring back the Flying Eagle!
And make it out of copper.

Bring back the Flying Eagle! And make it out of copper.

It has to be smaller to be all copper. Smaller than the dime. And cost less than one cent to mint. A half cent of copper would be one centimeter or 3/8ths of an inch in diameter and one millimeter thick.

[Grizzled Bear]

One Cent!

That’s how much the tax payer has left after socialist entitlement leeches get done sucking up other people’s money (OPM) through the government teat!
