MartyNZ Posted November 9, 2016 Share Posted November 9, 2016 (edited) Im going to start two new companies- 1- a moving company to pack all those who threatened to move out of the country if their person didnt win- 2-a brick manufacturing company for when they build the wall!!! I ll make a fortune- Wages commensurate with experience/education, 9 weeks maternity leave, HEALTH CARE, paid vacations. Accepting applications now! Good Plan JRD.Can I partner with you? I'll set up a refugee camp on my back lawn for the displaced US citizens. You can send them over to me, but they can only stay till 'Merica is great again. (Not that USA is not already great; that phrase confuses many people in other countries. All USA needs is to get rid of 1 cent coins, and adopt the metric system). Hopefully that will only take a few months. The downside for my dog, is he wouldn't be able to run around the house anymore. He would only be able to ran, 'cause it's past tents.

docc Posted November 9, 2016 Share Posted November 9, 2016 'cause it's past tents. As long as your dog sticks to past tents and isn't inclined to taste pants . . . Link to comment

That slogan confuses me as well. I am down with getting rid of the penny, but I am not sure about the metric system. I still think it might be a fad........ Link to comment
Chuck Posted November 21, 2016 Share Posted November 21, 2016 Well, you used to be able to drill a hole in a penny and have a copper washer. Not any more.. I don't know what they make em out of, but it's not copper. Link to comment
gstallons Posted November 21, 2016 Share Posted November 21, 2016 I am pretty sure it is copper clad aluminum. Link to comment
docc Posted November 22, 2016 Share Posted November 22, 2016 That'd still make a pretty decent washer! Link to comment
Scud Posted November 22, 2016 Share Posted November 22, 2016 US pennies are mostly zinc. You could grind 'em up, add some chromate and make yourself some poisonous primer. Pennies and $1.00 bills are both wasteful items and it's time to move on. The penny could be easily eliminated and the paper 1-dollar replaced with a coin - ideally one that does not cost $1.15 to produce. The last two 1-dollar coin attempts have failed to get wide circulation: Susan B. Anthony (US women's rights activist), and Sacagawea (native American female scout that guided Lewis and Clark, two white men, through western territory). In the US, we seem to prefer "dead presidents" on our money. Except for the $100 bill which features Benjamin Franklin, who was never president. From the song: Well, I ain't broke, but I'm badly bent Everybody love them dead presidents 1 Link to comment

Scud Posted November 22, 2016 Share Posted November 22, 2016 Amending my earlier post... Alexander Hamilton (on US $10 note) was never president either. And according to the NY Times, we'll see Harriet Tubman, an African-American female, on the US $20 note - but not for a while yet. http://www.nytimes.com/2016/04/21/us/women-currency-treasury-harriet-tubman.html?_r=0 Link to comment
