stop manufacture of the penny due to it's cost/value ratio.

Created by R.B. on March 20, 2013

The current cost of the penny is more than twice (2.41 cents) the value of the penny itself. The penny also does not have any real value in today's marketplace. The Obama administration should retire the penny to save money and frustration of the American people. Reference the retiring of the half-cent in the Act of February 21, 1857.
