The document discusses the case for abolishing pennies in the United States. It argues that pennies are outdated and worthless given that there are no single products that can be purchased for a penny. While pennies had more value in the 1950s when products were cheaper, as prices have risen with technology, pennies are no longer useful. However, the U.S. continues producing millions of pennies daily despite their lack of utility in the modern economy. Abolishing pennies would help address this issue.
