The US Mint will stop producing pennies and nickles effective January 2013. Dimes are possibly to be next.
We'll discuss what this means for America and ponder what a cashless society might look like.
Live 30 min. show. This is the debut of Debt Shepherd on Truth Militia Radio Network.

I like this guy Greg. Glad they gave him a spot during the week. Look forward to hearing his future shows. Our people need a serious financial education!
The penny and nickel story is a satire and was created by the following website;
http://skewnews.com/penny-and-nickel-coins-to-be-phased-out-in-2013/#.ULvbDh3aK3F
The story has an update so click on it and you'll see this;
My name is Henry Wallen and I am a staff writer at skewnews.com, a satire website.
Recently I wrote an political article entitled, "Penny and Nickel Coins to be Phased Out in 2013" which announced that pennies and nickels would be discontinued in January 2013. Most of our regular readers understood that it was fiction, but some people did not. The story went viral and has been viewed by several hundred thousand people.
The piece is not mean spirited, harmful or slanderous in any way, and skewnews.com carries a disclaimer stating that the website is not responsible for the accuracy of any work. However the editors and I agreed to come clean on this one.
For those people who were upset by the penny and nickel going away in January, you can be assured that this is not happening; the story is fiction and was written for entertainment value only.
If you have questions or comments, I encourage you to post them here, instead of on the original story page, as this format allows for a more interactive dialog.
Respectfully,
Henry Wallen
Thanks!
I thought there were two penny-nickle stories; one was real and another was satire.
I'm confused. Oh well. Let's spread more satire on a variety of other topics to keep everyone wasting time. Then after realizing it wasn't really funny at all, we do it again!
LMAO
Good show Greg.....
