Default Should the US Penny be Scraped?

In light of the fact that each penny now costs 1.2 cents to make, do you think the penny should be retired? Bear in mind that it is an important symbol of our culture and graced with the profile of one of our most beloved presidents.

Default Another Way

While I do not think that the penny should be "retired," I do believe that it should be changed or made smaller so that the penny would reclaim its value.

Default ...

Seems like a great idea when you first think of it, but it'll probably take them about 10 years to decide exactly how they want it to look, etc., etc...
