Stop the production of pennies, and perhaps other invaluble coins like the nickel or dime.

Created by J.N. on January 14, 2013

The United States is a global powerhouse, yet our economy is not in a perfect situation at the moment. Mr. President, here is a proposal that you should deeply consider and attempt to follow through with the utmost urgency. Removing the penny from circulation is one way to cut back on costs and save the US government millions of dollars each year. This money could be used for government programs, expansion of jobs, and would be create a more efficient environment for the American people. Other countries around the globe have removed the one cent coin from circulation and they are doing much better than before. Please consider this as a step in the right direction for securing America's financial future.
