Today I’ve got this Issue on my Nationstates (nationstates.net)
Brother, Can You Spare A Dime?
Since the minting of pennies is twice as costly as the coin’s stated value, the idea of removing the smallest fractions of the CURRRENCY has been brought to your attention.
I’ve encountered with 3 choices
1. “We are wasting MILLIONS of CURRENCY on minting pennies!” raves an unusually passionate policy advocate, Ali Khan, while handing out ‘Penny Dreadful’ t-shirts to all your staff. “And all so people have to waste time scrambling through their purses and wallets just to dig out one hundredth of a CURRENCY. Many nations in REGIONSNAME have already abolished their most worthless coins. It’s time for NATIONSTATES to follow suit.”
2. “That flies in the face of all our time-honored traditions,” counters another advocate, this one bedecked in full period dress. “Our favorite national hero is portrayed on the storied one-cent coin, so it would be unpatriotic to discard the penny as worthless scrap. Especially since pennies lower prices slightly for the poorest of the poor. Very, very slightly.”
3. “Actually, I think it’s high time we got rid of physical currency altogether,” says the president of the Chamber of Commerce, Renee Cheswick, flanked by officials from various security agencies. “We should just digitize all money. People spend more when they don’t see themselves physically handing over cash, and the benefits to tracking terrorists and other subversives are obvious. That sounds like a solid win-win to me.”
