What is wrong with this picture

I just fainted again!

I guess it is time to start saving pennies and nickels.

I already do...and quarters and dimes too. I have one of those big glass water jugs. We all throw our loose change in there everday. We usually count it about once a year. We up well over $500 right now. It really does add up!!!!

I read an article where someone talked about getting rid of the penny, and that made sense to me, until someone said that as a result state sales tax would end up going up to 10 percent ... because there was no way they would drop it down to 5 percent. :shock: Or I guess they could keep it at 7 percent and just round every transaction up to the nearest .05. Odd though ... hard to imagine ... I like the idea of minting it in China better. :floor: 😱

Get ready, this will be just the pitch to do away with cash, and the gov't will be able to track your every move, even better than today. Marketing peeps will better know your purchasing habits, reducing waste on advertising and using more focused direct marketing like that which Amazon created long ago. It is coming. Get ready.
