South of Moline, 67 to NN, West to 56th | ive seen articles that suggest that pennies not only be discontinued, but that their value will be converted to 5 cents by mandate.
those that have a hoard of pennies will instantly reap a 5 to 1 return.
then there are also ideas that our US paper currancy be replaced overnight, all the old to be converted to new within a short amount of time, the old then being declared worthless. all of the counterfit and underground economy stuff would be flushed out, that "hard to explain" amounts like drug money would just disappear, no value to anyone. the value of a "new real dollar" would be increased but im thinking that the economy would be creamed since the illegal part is so important, we actually NEED fake and ill gotten bucks floating around. b
