Our latest poll: Should we get rid of the penny? Here's the pros and cons.

Posted by Reema Bazzy on Sunday, February 10, 2013

Here is the basic breakdown of the penny debate.  This is a synopsis of this article on About.com. 

Yes Penny

  • Prices go up because everything will get rounded up, not down.
  • Poor people make more small purchases and so will be burdened most heavily.
  • Lots of little charities rely on people's willingness to give away pennies.
  • No pennies means more nickels.  They cost more to make than pennies.
  • Nostalgia. Sentimentality. Change is hard (no pun intended.)
  • Lincoln.
