First video I've ever seen on here with a clear political bias. I'm shocked and honestly a little disappointed. Any conservative who knows anything about the situation could make a counter-point to everything said in this video.

  Surprisingly, the penny issue very much follows party lines. It is extremely controversial whether to keep it or to get rid of it. And yes, I am in favor of keeping the penny. Rounding up to the nickel is bad for business and bad for the consumer. It costs nearly 7 cents to make a nickel. The "fumbling for change" argument is ridiculous because you will fumble for ANY type of coin: penny, nickel, dime, quarter. You won't lose any extra time simply because of pennies. And if your avatar is a red Maple leaf, are you from Canada? If so, why are you interested in American currency?

  I work in the US. And pennies are just a hassle. If you get short-changed by 3 cents. Do you start an argument with the cashier then?
