Already linked in an earlier thread, but since your thread has a descriptive title and your comment is actually coherent, I vote that we have the discussion here.
Why won't government stop producing the cent? Well, one thing government is REALLY, REALLY good at is wasting tax payer dollars, I dare say.
As I have replied to the other threads on this subject... Why not stop production of the cent, everything else I collect is obsolete.

That was funny. Why don't they throw pennies my way - I sure in the heck pick up any lose change I see.
