As of 2024 Pennies cost 3 cents to make and Nickels cost 11.5 cents to make.

Dimes cost 5.3 cents to make
I expect they'll eventually give in to the Mint and start printing aluminum coins. The US mint has been pushing for aluminum pennies since the 40's, and Congress always says no. As of right now, an aluminum penny would cost a little over half a cent. If they made them out of aluminum-bronze, they'd cost about one cent and they'd last a century or so in circulation.
 
Redskins did have firearms and we fought them on and off all through that westward expansion, and we fought and won a war against the English not only for our independence but again not long after, during which I'm sure they did their best to enact exactly what you're describing. We won the wars, and when we didn't like where the indians were, we put them somewhere else.
They didn't arm and send them military advisors then arm them with repeaters or revolvers on a direct warpath against the Americans instead you had random tribes who could be taken on one at a time, running into farmsteads in the country and brutally chop them into several pieces I know the redskins could be brutal with their scalping but they didn't enact total race war tactics on every single settler it was a mixed bag with them.
Angloid colonization worldwide turned to a Quixotic civilizing mission (at least they're not as horny as the Spanish), and the fact that they couldn't get along with the Boers well enough to stop the Zulus overrunning everything makes me question your reductive lust for more whites. I said elsewhere, back when the US had a frontier, we got enterprising, freedom loving immigrants who made this country what it is.
The zulus got shit stomped into the ground then we have invading plains niggers who came from outside the region and let into the nation while still a crown colony there are very few zulu niggers in south africa. Africa was a frontier filled with enterprising whites like you say America got so the argument doesn't stand these men and women took to a new untouched land and made their own society setting up farms, mining operations etc. The demographics of America is whites it doesn't include blacks it doesn't include mexicans for they can never truly be Americans if any race of people are allowed into the states it should be whites globally. How is wanting more people of the same character as what an American is enterprising frontier conquering people as reductive when they lost the war because everyone decided to be a faggot and practice liberalism outside of their own race. The wars in Rhodesia and South Africa weren't lost from being outright conquered it was from outside global sanctions where only a few states even dared to stand with them which funnily enough was Israel (not all jews are bad but jews do in huge percentages support communism look up the religion and race of the Weimar communists who fought in the civil war majority are jews)
Now all the good whites are already here, because the more conservative yet patriotic ones who were left got ground up in two world wars. I'm sure there's some good saffers we could be getting, plus plenty of naive retards and plain weirdos. Like null says, what were these white freaks even doing in Africa; and their failures, even in the face of international pressure, don't reflect well. See also kiwis and strayans, they're not based, not anymore, they're land acknowledging fuckups who heeded the call to turn in the guns.
I could throw the what are white freaks even doing in America in the 1500's setting up colonies surrounded by indians who want them dead. Reminder null fled the United States to go to an all white ethno-nationalist country fleeing the country his daddy gave him just like the ragepig ethan ralph who now lives out his days pilled out in mehico. So sorry if I don't take every single thing der fatter says as golden when he only just returned back to the States. The Kiwis lived relatively well among their natives and only just in recent history have given in to total faggotry and the tears of the natives the same could be said for the whites who backed down when the national guard pointed guns at them and forced niggers into white schools here in the states
I believe we faced armed, hostile Indians and blockaded ports before.
We did face them as small tribes that didn't coalition together. America was also supported by the Prussians with sending over some of the best instructors in the world at the time Baron Friedrich Wilhelm von Steuben the drillmaster of the colonialists. While also being bankrolled and supported by Spain a world stage super power comparable to the English along with France who what do you know also bankrolled us with arms and trade with the use of their fleet allowing smugglers and normal trade to happen as usual. so no its not equally the same as being cut off from trade with the entire world by every single nation who produces anything. So it's not a tale of America being cut off by everyone else while trying to fight an insurrection at home who is attacking civilian centers and farmers in the countryside.
 
Your wife will finally have an orgasm.
Interesting NTR fetish, Vtuber meme avatar.
I advise you go here for more of that stuff. you'll fit right in if you use the Brit/Aus/Leaf/Mutt flag.
Just noticed your coomer tranime banner too. You're a lost cause and I gurantee you're a faggot or troon, or worse; a 4chan tourist.

Redditor is claiming that Kendrick Lamar performing 'Not Like Us' was actually a secret own on Blumpf that everyone is too stupid to understand. What do you guys think?

Everyone on reddit is either a porn-addict tranny pedo or just literally retarded, Most of the time my starting position is "the opposite of what the reddit faggot said is probably the truth".
 
I'm old enough to remember when the Obama administration said it was going to ignore a court order until all appeals had been exhausted, did so, and got away with it because the Nogbringer was Jesus. I'm old enough to remember the Biden administration saying judges were full of shit for ruling against it and the Defenders of Democracy(TM) not having a word to say about it. I'm old enough to remember libshits reeeeing that the Supreme Court will issue lawless rulings in favor of Trump every day for the last 5 years

This particular ex parte, lawless order re: DOGE will be appealed on Monday with an emergency stay applied for, the stay will be granted by a higher court, and libshits will reeeee about it
 
Well, well, well.

This is big if it's true...

TL;DR: Whistleblower comes forward and names names and files a criminal complaint against the governor of Pennsylvania and implicates the former head of the FBI as well as Joe Biden himself, in the attempted assassination of Trump at Butler.
If this pans out it may be the biggest political scandal of many of our lifetimes, holy shit.
 
Instead of importing the Boers we could drive the ANC and EFF from the Boers' homeland.
I second this. We (the West) should be helping the Boers take what is rightfully theirs. Use all the money we're giving to Ukraine and Israel and funnel it to the Boers. Maybe now with Trump leading the way the West will end our shameful retreat and take a stand.

It is literally rightfully theirs. They were the fist people to settle in this mostly unfavorable, and at the time uninhabited, land. And they developed it.
The niggers immigrated from up north once south africa became fertile and rich enough ti sustain a population.

The Boers were the original owners/keepers/custodians of the land. Because there was no one fucing there before them.

I am fine with this. I remember travelling in Europe about 15 years ago and countries like the Netherlands just rounded up or down to the nearest 5 cents and didn't use the penny euro coin. It's a sad realization of where we are but no need for them, just zillow the pennies or something, sheeeeeeeeit.
Apologize to Bimmy
 
sadly that will never be allowed.

I will get alittle abstract with you here about money as a concept.

Money is basically an abstraction of "value"

Do you want money to be a "store of value" or a "means of exchange"?

These goals are fundamentally at odds with eachother. Inflation makes storing value harder and encourages investment. But too much inflation fucking ruins everything. Prices will never be allowed to go backwards even if we agree that the covid era money printer go burr was a mistake.

Because the second you get deflation it means existing debt is more exspensive and if you have money you will hold it because you will get a better value the longer you hold.

No one will allow this.

on the other hand as a means of exchange you know money is just a abstraction for stuff and the amount of stuff and its demand are always in flux worse certain things like fuel and food are very very inelastic in demand so a rising price doent really change demand.

fuck I have a few different jobs right, and I ve given honest thought to going to down to the coin shop and buying gold/sliver as a way to force more discipline on myself basically I would be selling the pm back to the shop in less that 12 months in order to service my property tax bill.
Or we could just have neither, like the average inflation rate of -1% between 1776 and 1913.
 
The one thing I can see being a problem with the penny going away is state and county sales tax. Some are 5% but others are 1%, 2%, etc. Sometimes you have both that add up to 4% or 7% or whatever.

There's no way they'll agree to round down and take less money, so instead they'll put all sales taxes at 5% or 10%. You will see 10%, maybe even 15% sales taxes in some places.

I'd rather they find a way to make the pennies cheaper, out of aluminum as has been suggested or something similar.
 
Just get rid of them and make 10 cent the smallest coin. And just round to the nearest 10c at checkout at the supermarket. Like most other countries do.

Sure, "but what if someone goes to Safeway and carefully picks items so that the total will end up at xx.25 and it will then be rounded down to xx.20. They make 5 cent on this transaction". Yeah, fucking let them.
Sure, and if you go to Safeway 200 times and do this you will save 10$. Who cares. For normal people the rounding ends up at a net-zero as the rounding all cancels out.

How many people are even paying in cash anymore? The only times that I do any more are at concerts, ball games, or other events where everything is already priced to round to a nearest dollar (or conveniently close to $10 so that you'll drop the extra $1 in a tip jar) so no one has to fuck around with change and the lines keep moving. Any other time I'm using a card. Even people without credit or debit cards have mobile payment apps that many businesses accept.

The taxes aren't getting rounded down. They are what they are and the business eats any cost of rounding down.

Making the penny cheaper is a loser move. Quit printing money like a third world African shithole country and we can make the penny more valuable.
