To begin with, Alan S. Blinder, the author of “Abolishing the Penny Makes Good Sense” argues that pennies should be abolished. He effectivity builds this argument by using plain folks appeal, logos, and bandwagon appeal to support his claim. In addition, the first technique the author uses to argue about abolishing pennies is plain folks appeal. In the text he states “If it’s not worth the time of an 8 year old to wrap pennies, why does the U.S government keep producing the things?” In this text
penny would become the new five cent piece. This would save more money than eliminating the penny would. Another solution is to change the dollar bill into a coin. “Public acceptance of getting rid of the penny is higher than it is for the dollar, but savings is higher for the dollar than it is for the penny” (Howard). The U.S. mint is already releasing dollar coins for collectors’ purposes. It would only take a small amount of work to increase production of the golden coins and decrease that of the
Penny-Save the Day!”, by Ted Waterhouse, and “The Ever-Changing Penny”, by Maria Story, all show different sides and facts of a debate about pennies and whether we should keep them or not. “Penny Wise, or 2.4 Cents Foolish” tells the reader about the Canadian government and how they are not producing the penny anymore. It also talks about what could happen if the penny went away in the United States and how other coins such as the nickel cost more to make than they are worth too. “Give a Penny-Save the
Ira Keys first started saving pennies while he was in high school in the 1950s. At 17 years old, his father told him that whatever he did, he should save his money. No one could have ever suspected how seriously Ira Keys took that advice, and since the 1950s, he has been saving his pennies. That is more than 65 years of saving money. Over the years, Ira placed his pennies in Folger's coffee cans, and he had accumulated a fair amount of them. It was not until 2015 that Ira decided it was time to
getting rid of the penny could eliminate problems that the near- worthless one cent piece has created. The penny in today’s economy has become useless, yet the government still produces 4.3 billion of them per year, wasting more than 100 million dollars, according to John Fund in his article “Penny Anti”. Fund writes, “Because the penny costs more than a cent to produce, the Treasury loses more than $100 million per year on the coin’s production. Fund also writes that the penny could be costing each
Do pennies have any value? Generally, pennies are known as small copper coins that many people get as change and most likely ignore. Although many people feel that pennies may change the world, others would disagree.

Pennies are small, however when they
pennies millions of dollars are lost. Whereas, if we stop producing them so much more money will be saved. According to Jeff Sommer in source 1, “In the United States, the mint says, each zinc and copper coin costs 2.41 cents to produce and distribute.” (pg.2) This piece of evidence shows how we are wasting money by producing pennies that cost more than they are worth. Also, pennies are not highly used or valued, if pennies continue to be made the US is losing millions of dollars while it could be

Shawshank Redemption I never watch the Shawshank Redemption before or even heard of it until this class. After watching the movie it depicts a very good picture of the characteristics and patters of the behavior of the prison, the belief’s , values and traditions of the prison. We might see them as odd but to the inmates that’s a norm for them. In the Shawshank when a new bus of inmates come to the prison everyone in the yard comes to the fence. You can see them yell and scream at the new inmates
