Pennies

People are trying again to kill the penny.  Just to add insult to injury, the law would require all prices to be rounded up.

But that's how math actually works. These people are too dumb to remember that if it's under 5, you round down, and if it's 5+ you round up. Which is perhaps an example of how I'm better at math than 2/3 of Americans, despite being lucky to get the same answer three times running with a calculator.

I remember that about rounding.

It's possible that whoever set the new rule is rich enough they've never had to pinch pennies.
