Yes -- our governments do know how to round down. Go to a state where the sales tax is 6%. If you pay for a item that's worth $0.90, the tax...
In some foreign counties they have, indeed, gotten rid of the 1-cent (or their equivalent), and, in fact, they don't always round up, they round...
And making billions of them.
I also spend a decent amount of them each week. Well, actually, I make my kids spend them: lunch money, fee for this and that after school...
