Trump tells the treasure to stop giving “waste”

The Secretary in the United States of the Treasury, Scott Bessent, was invited to stop hitting coins or money as they are widely called, US President Donald Trump in an announcement on his social networks account.

“Let us tear down the waste of our budget of the great nations, even if it is a penny at a time,” said the post of Trump, describing the movement as a cost reduction measure.

This comes after the unofficial department of Elon Musk of government efficiency (DOGE) drew attention to the cost of reducing money in a post over X last month.

The debate on the cost and usefulness of sub-was long was in the United States.

“It’s so a waste,” said Trump Truth Social Post.

“I asked my American Treasury secretary to stop producing new money.”

According to the annual report in 2024 of US Mint, the manufacture and distribution of a one hundred part cost 3.69 cents.

US government officials and congresses have proposed in the past to stop the penny without success.

Although its detractors have argued that the zinc and copper part is a waste of money and resources, those who support it say that the part maintains the lower prices and increases fundraising for charitable organizations.

Other countries have interrupted similar pieces. Canada abandoned its part to one penny in 2012, citing the cost of decrease and its drop in purchasing power due to higher prices.

The drop in the use of money has meant the United Kingdom did not mental new parts in 2024After the officials decided that there were already enough coins in circulation.

The British treasure said that 1P or 2P coins are not deleted, but with more people living lives without species, there were several years that no 2P part was produced. 20p coins also experienced various periods without new strike.
