solution is to do away the penny.” These opinions are very crucial, because what they don’t realize is that according to article number three “Give a Penny-Save the Day!”, it states “if you asked for his quarter instead of his penny he would have said, “no.” This is because people would rather give away something that is not worth something to them rather than something that is. So charities would lose money. People aren’t willing to donate quarters they much would rather donate pennies. According to article number two “Is the Penny Worth It?”, it says if we get rid of pennies they would start using the rounding system. If we started using the rounding system store’s would round up instead of down, because rounding up gives the store more money instead of rounding down which would give the store less money. The three main reasons why I chose to keep the penny is because they have influenced us, we can put them to good use, and everything would be cheaper if we keep the penny.
An example of how pennies have influenced us is according to article number four “The Ever-Changing Penny”, it states “the one-cent piece has influenced our language, giving us a number of idioms, such as “a penny for your thoughts,” or “not one red cent.” pennies have influenced us in a way that gives our lives a little more figurative language. An example of how pennies are put to good use is according to article number three “Give a Penny-Save the Day!”, it states “pennies might be a little bulky, but they add up;moreover, because they are worth so little, people don’t mind donating them to charity.” Pennies are put to good use by donating them to charity. An example I could type to prove how everything would be cheaper if we keep the penny would be according to article number two “Is the Penny Worth It?”, it states “Price rounding cannot be done fairly.” It also states “some people fear that rounding will end up costing people extra money.” Pennies make sure prices don’t go up or down a couple of cents it makes the price fair. Pennies save consumers from paying an extra amount of money, because of the rounding system. This is why we should keep so that we don’t have to risk prices going up, our figurative language gets more advanced, and charities earn more money by the
second. Keeping the penny can lose the risk of price increase and keep charities going, but can not save time and money for businesses. Losing the penny can save money and time for businesses, but increase the risk of prices going up, and leave charities with not enough money. Keeping the penny would be better because everything is fine the way it is and i’m sure that the non-wealthy people would not appreciate all the prices going up. Would you rather save yourself from price increase or leave yourself paying more because you got rid of the penny? A way you could help is do a peaceful protest, to show that you want to keep the penny. Choices are made everyday choose wisely.
