I see this as a good thing. It saves us money, and people rarely use pennies anyway.

This makes fiscal sense. It costs more to produce a penny than they are actually worth. There's no reason to continue to make pennies.

I think we would if it came to that, because lord knows all that copper could be used for something, but we won't be phasing it out so much as we are stopping production. That said, in a way this is the beginning of a phasing out because pennies do not last forever...

Oh I know. I am not saying we should not go through with this bill. That said, this is a form of phasing out, albeit an extremely slow one.
