    It all spends the same, I don't mind who is on the bill.  There are definitely women in history who have earned the right to be on currency.  

    Pretty cool we get to share this history with our daughter...

    I think Jack Bauer needs a bill. He's an awesome American. 

    I told  myself I would stay off this thread. Oh the siren song of a good fight....

    No matter what the change, there are some for the change, some against.

    If we were a smart country, we wouldn't put portraits on the currency, and avoid all the drama.

    I prefer credit cards, keeps the loose change out of my pocket.

    I'm the opposite.  Cash based for me.  Even with amazon, I buy gift cards with cash and apply them to my account.  

    My yearly transactions from the bank could be printed on one sheet of paper.

    Ex wives will do that to you.

    Hey now...if the Founding Fathers didn't want "In God We Trust" on our currency they wouldn't have put it on it.

    Oh...wait...

    In 100-200 years from now I just wonder how many of today's heroes and innovators they will try to erase from history or turn into monsters.  How much stuff went down in the old days that was accepted and norm back then??  Ethics evolve will society and we cannot go back an judge the early settlers, founders, a caveman on the same standards as today.  Look back at all the good stuff and see how the nation evolved from what we NOW see as bad.

    Hopefully society and the nation will also have evolved from this butt hurt mentality that it is stuck in.  You don't like something or it offends you, but you can continue living your life unchanged regardless??  Fine, screw it, they're a-holes and you're better than that ("and gosh darnit, people like me")!  You have a right to be offended, but you don't have to drag everyone one else into it and make them feel your [perceived] plight.  Find something positive about something else.....something contrary to what offenders you, and promote the hell out of it.  Nobody wants to hang around or listen to someone that b!tches constantly; however, if you're really into something, go tell it on the mountain top.

    This isn't directed at anyone, any post, or this specific incident......this is just getting ridiculous.

    I'm pretty upset I can't dribble and shoot a basketball like Kobe Bryant and Stephen curry. I think there are WAY too many African Americans in professional sports. It needs to be more fair.  I will complain until more white people are in the NBA even though they don't deserve it.
