    And the US, the largest economy in the world won't stop making a coin that most folks wouldn't bother to pick up off the ground.

    In our Canadian Federal Budget the penny is gone!

    Not only that, but Old Age Security checks (about $6000 a year) is being moved back to age 67 (from 65).

    Get ready all you 'baby boomers' for more (cutbacks) to come!!
