The penny irritates me. I dislike using them in transactions, I discard them when I receive them, and I generally feel they are a waste of time. Thus I enjoy reading about the debates to eliminate the penny from the US currency. A few days ago I came across this article that does a great job of summarizing the arguments for ridding us of the penny and discusses some of the details that are currently holding us back. What I like about the article is that the author doesn’t shy away from the idea of eliminating the nickel and dime as well. I think it is a telling trait that the author is trying to give an honest and impartial account of the currency debate.
