New Pennies = Government Waste
So, I reach into my pocket today and discover I have four brand new 2009 pennies. Seems to me that if we want to cut some government wast how about that. Who is in charge of oversight ? First do we really need any more pennies? If the government needs some pennies how about asking the people to take some of the billions of pennies stashed in jars and cans all over the country and take them to the bank, get those pennies back in circulation. The new pennies have a lovely picture of Lincoln sitting on a log. Isn't that nice we paid an artist to make the engraving made new plates to stamp out the pennies and then dug up some copper (more like an alloy) and stamped out who knows how many pennies . What a waste...
