I think they can get rid of pennies and nickels without too much

would have to do would be to round to the nearest $0.1 instead. If
people can handle paying for gasoline priced in units one order of
magnitude smaller than the smallest available currency, then they can
get used to that sort of pricing scheme for ALL products.

How about restoring value to currency instead of inflating it?

Are you suggesting we all take the hit and pin the currency back to
the gold standard?

But then, warmongers like shrub wouldn't beable to borrow and spend on
their little adventures....
