Is it about time, or is it still useful? If you think its time has passed, what about the nickel/dime/quarter?

Yes, and daylight savings time and the electoral college too please.
Lose 'em. Nickels too, gone. Honestly if we ditched dimes too I wouldn’t shed a tear. Quarters are cool though, they can stay.
Can we just round everything to the nearest dollar? If something is still cheap enough to be 25 cents then it should only be sold in a pack of 4.
I say get rid of money completely. Everything should be free for everyone. Except for my neighbor, Ron. He’s still gotta pay.
We need to move to mobile payments. Cash is dirty.
Cashless is class warfare. Some people can’t get bank accounts.
I guess they can’t participate in the economy if they aren’t participating in society.
The people I’m talking about are participating in society ya dingus
Sure. Fuck it. I wouldn’t waste any brain power on it when the *gestures wildly at everything* is still happening
Consider the fact that Japan has a ¥1 coin. It is strangely light, and can actually float on water if you are careful enough with the surface tension.
The purpose of leaving that coin in circulation is pricing. ¥399 looks much better than ¥400.
At the moment, ¥1 is about 0.64¢.
Several countries got rid of the penny already, we still have pricing listed to the 1 cent. If you pay cash it’s rounded to the nearest 5cent if you pay with card it’s not rounded at all.
Nothing changes you just don’t spend money minting coins that cost more than their value, and don’t have to wait behind someone digging through their wallet for those pennies that they “swear are in here somewhere”
