Penny Update


On Monday February 4, 2013, Canada stopped minting pennies because well, the same as it is here, they cost more to make than they are worth.

Those Canadians.  Everyone has health care,  there are sane gun laws and they have ended the wasteful expense of minting a penny.  Perhaps it's all that cold air that helps them think clearly.

It's the US zinc lobby that keeps the expensive penny in pockets here.
