President Donald Trump says he has directed the Treasury Department to stop minting new pennies, citing the rising cost of producing the one-cent coin.
The only reason we still have pennies is the zinc mining companies bribing Congress. They’re the only losers here. (And they aren’t just going to close the zinc mines. So, the workers/miners probably won’t even be hurt. Just some owners/shareholders.)

exactly.
i’m all for getting rid of it. but this goes through congress, first. then they send it to the white house for a signature.
a president, and i don’t give a fuck who it is, can’t rewrite legislation, or the constitution, whenever or however the fuck they want.
