Planet Money did an really interesting look at the history of income tax. I love these guys & I learned so much.

I love Planet Money! Their piece about dollar coins vs dollar bills was really fascinating.

I loved this one too!

I just got back to Australia where they don't have pennies, and they have 1$ and 2$ coins. It really is easier and nicer. Plus it makes your lose change bucket up to 8x more valuable. We really should get rid of pennies though. So worthless.
