Big Zinc won't let them stop and nobody else gives enough of a fuck to make an issue of it. Classic zany behavior explained by public choice theory.

Even if it costs slightly more than a cent to make a cent, the Government is still creating money out of nothing, which then goes out into the world. 8 billion cents made per year = an interest free loan to the government of $80m. Also, they more than make it up on all of the other coins that they mint.

Honestly, there's no reason to have coins anymore at all.

folks on the CT boards have hinted at dozens of warehouses (a massive hoard) of pre-‘82 copper pennies being packaged and sold internationally at 3 cents, as a means of staying ahead on the zinc stink

the government is not a profit maximizing firm and the penny confers sustainably more value to society than either 1 or 2.2 cents
