The other part that occurs to me is if they take suppressors and SBR's out of the NFA, I may not even notice pennies going away. 

Maybe Republican politicians will notice that and get ideas for a future since they rarely do anything for their own voters.

Canadian penny was last distributed official in 2012 (according to Wikipedia). Still legal tender, so it's accepted by stores but apparently isn't given out in change because they do the nearest 5 cent rounding.

They should put Trump on the $20.  [popcorn]
