and the government's excuse is it cost more then a cent to make. They make it sound like it is single use :colbert:

If you account for all the asshole who keep throwing them in the trash, it pretty much averages out to that.
Technically thats a felony, but the only time Americans give a crap about laws is when it gets them free handouts.

We need to abandon all coins beside the quarter. Then make the dollar and five dollars into coins.

And make it illegal for gas stations to price to the tenth of a cent

more like the US citizens should fix their head and use it :awe:

Yeah, that's more the case. If they really want the public to change, but don't want to set a hard date, THEN:

However many $1 bills are printed last year. Hold it at that number for a year. Then slowly ramp it down. Force the coins in that way.
