People say this is good because making a penny costs more than a penny, but they completely ignore the fact that this a result of inflation and currency debasement.

In 1982 we stopped using copper in pennies because we couldn’t afford that, and now we can’t even afford to make them out of zinc! Same thing happened towards the end of Rome.

2012

Canada stopped producing its one-cent coins, also known as pennies, in 2012 due to production costs. Ireland, the Netherlands, Brazil and others also stopped producing or circulating one-cent coins.

Drip, drip, drip, one by one on the road to digital only. Odd how under Trump 2020 there was change shortages and dirty due to c19 cooties and some places were only accepting “tap and pay”. Heading to our digital serfdom at 100 mph.

don't you wish you have a penny made in 1982? or a Rome coin made before ? This could make pennies worth more than BTC.

Copper was last used in significant amounts in U.S. pennies until September 1982, when the composition changed to primarily zinc with only a thin copper plating. Prior to that, pennies were made of 95% copper until the early 1980s due to rising metal costs.

Same with the nickels; it costs more than 5 cents to make them. It costs less than 10 cents to make a dime, so dimes can stay in production. Now, even thinking will cost more: “A dime (penny) for your thoughts.”

Uphold the constitution and make money hard to get and valueable again worth more then face value. It's become worthless because they just create it from nothing and hand it out. You don't just give something valueable away for nothing we wouldn't have wasteful spending

We need to "Make Pennies Copper Again" and go back to gold and silver as currency.

Just more stupid headlines to "stop waste" which actually entrenches the masses in the debt system, thinking this is helpful. Just more mental manipulation.

Trump is bringing on the new world order. He will start with the penny and end with getting rid of all paper and coin money. Then bring in some kind of digital currency to support the complete slavery of humanity.

Yes. It is nauseating. Along with him ripping off his own supporters with that Trump digital coin. And his fake bibles. And selling golden shoes. And the dumb beverage glass with a bullet from the fake assassination stunt. I don’t know how people can’t see who he is. It is so obvious. The Bible describes him perfectly. But I don’t think his supporters are interested in spiritual warfare. They are absolutely clueless. It is very difficult to watch all of them destroy themselves and all of humanity.

Until Trump shows us who he LOBBIED to make his billions via eminent domain, I have to remain vigilant.

An AZ project named Shorehaven DJT friend and 2025 admin Howard Lutnick and business partner Lucky Larry Silverstein project benefitting off taxpayers similar to a djt pop Fred NY Shore Haven🤔.

In 2017 DJT pushed through Op Zones, promoted to help low income areas, funny how things expands to twist the early descriptions. Funny how those who don’t need a helping hand make billions off we the taxpayers who get stuck funding their big money projects via our tax-dollars. We the people need to to stop funding through our personal earnings these sheistertax subsidized companies.

Who are the heads of the two companies developing this project (with at least 5 more similar projects)?

Mr 911 Twin Towers Larry Siverstein and Mr crocodile tears (& some claim money launderer) Cantor-Fitzgerald Howard Lutnick

"This project, supported by Qualified Opportunity Zone investment, will help transform the area into a vibrant community and a premier recreational destination in the greater Phoenix area."

Early life and career

Rise to success

Following the war, Trump expanded into middle-income housing for the families of returning veterans. From 1947 to 1949, he built Shore Haven in Bensonhurst, which included 32 six-story buildings and a shopping center, covering some 30 acres (12 hectares) and procuring him $9 million in FHA funding.[55] In 1950, he built the 23-building Beach Haven Apartments over 40 acres (16 ha) near Coney Island, procuring him $16 million in FHA funds.[56] The total number of apartments included in these projects exceeded 2,700.[28][j]

A few years ago heard trump make a comment about eminent domain and how the land stolen from the pleb is paid top dollar via eminent domain. I know that is not always true personally familiar. It may sometimes, but not always. I think in the Kelo vs New London situation the property owners were not fully paid market and who was the land going to? Trump’s friendly pharma company, Pfizer who then bailed on the deal after people went through an unnecessary ordeal.

Lucy, as a moderate Democrat I am still glad that Trump is undoing the ridiculous and extreme Woke-ism funded by Soros that was sending our country in a seriously bad direction, especially for our children. I actually couldn't vote for Biden, Harris or Trump (I didn't vote at all). Trump, for now is the lesser of the previous inept choices. Obama ran on keeping us out of war, but once in Office - guess what? We were in Afghanistan! Still upset about Hillary with the Benghazi horrors inflicted on our Americans left behind....ditto for what Biden did with Afghanistan withdrawal (utterly disgusting). We are going to likely want NO leaders by 2032. Humanity will be done with the massive Egos required to run countries.

Completely Psychotic!!! (TRAITOR Trump is a PSYCHOPATH!!!!!)

With ALLLLL of the PROBLEMS that this country has.......THIS is wtf is taking up his thoughts/time???

Once AGAIN.......it is WE AMERICANS who ARE GETTING SCREWED!!

If ZOMBIFIED AmeriKans would THINK about it......this does, in fact, SCREW US!

What is this PSYCHOPATH going to say, about the prices of things?....."Just 'ROUND IT UP'!!".

This is just going to make CORPORATIONS MORE $$$$!

If something (say, FOOD), costs $4.96 or $4.97, or $4.98 or $4.99.......'just' 'ROUND IT UP' to $5.00??

THINK about just HOW MANY ITEMS, that you buy, are BETWEEN .00-.04 and .06-.09 cents.

We will be LOSING $$$$ ON EVERY ITEM!

If the ZOMBIES are capable of DOING MATH......ADD UP your YEARLY LOSS; Pennies DO ADD UP!

Think of YOUR BILLS.......now ALL of them will be 'ROUNDED UP'!

And the RICH GET RICHER!!

YOU LOSE.......SUCKERS!

Great idea. In 2017 it cost 1.5 cents to produce one cent. Now it costs 3.7 cents for each penny. Not cost effective and I'm glad He is eliminating them. Now we need to see the Fed eliminated and all the excess money printing along with the IRS.

I don't always agree with Trump, but we haven't needed pennies for 30 or more years. I almost never use coins and rarely use cash. I think we should eliminate all coins. Round up or down to the nearest dollar.
