Making a Change
      Canada's Finance decides to save money by stopping making the pennies  because penny costs too much to make it. The cost  of making penny can be $11 million a year.However, some Canadians do not accept this idea.On the other hand, others think that stopping making penny can increase sales. U.S. lawmakers have failed to eliminate the penny.Yet they look for cheaper ways to make the coin.

      I was surprised when I read that making the penny can cost 1.5 cents. so, I think it is useful to stop produce the penny. Especially if this procedure can help the economy. 
   From this article , I learned different vocabulary like clutter, contradiction, and mourn.

  1. I wouldn't mind if the U.S. got rid of the penny because I don't like counting them and they have very little value anyway. Does your country have a similar problem with currency?
