Kill-the-penny bill introduced

Kolbe's home state of Arizona is the largest copper producing state in the nation. Copper is the main material of the nickel which would benefit by becoming the lowest denomination of currency in circulation.

Round everything up to the nearest even number and use $2 bills instead!

 

No that would make to much cents [sic] and save money. Americans are not known for making sense with money, especially when political interests get involved.

 

But in the end it will be status quo. What a shame.

 

Ciao, and Hook 'em Horns,

If anyone happens to see Representative Jim Kolbe out somewhere please throw a penny at his head and tell him to shut his mouth.

e) Numismatic Items- The Secretary of the Treasury may produce so many 1-cent pieces as the Secretary determines are sufficient to include in uncirculated sets, proof sets, and other collector sets as, from time to time, the Secretary shall determine.

If the President dollar coins are really popular....

 

Federal reserve banks may continue to place into circulation $1 Federal reserve notes until the date as of which the number of $1 coins placed in circulation in each of 2 preceding calendar years equals or exceeds 1,000,000,000.

A boon for Bill collectors......

 

Issuance of New Design Each Year- A new design shall be selected for $2 Federal reserve notes issued or otherwise placed into circulation by any Federal reserve bank during each year of the 5-year period

 

 

I'm sure Virginia would have a fit over that, unless of course they keep Jefferson's face.

<<That's what will kill it.>>

 

Yep and for no good reason since the actual number of jobs lost at Craine would be very small. Everyone thinks that since the dollar bill represents the bulk of the paper Craine makes for currency that there would be a lot of layoff. No one ever considers the fact that if the dollar bill is dropped the production of twos will skyrocket and take up a lot of the slack.
