Since we are getting Harriet Tubman on the $20, I figured I share a cool article on the history of US money.

Trump doesn't like this.

"Well, Andrew Jackson had a great history, and I think it's very rough when you take somebody off the bill," Drumpf said during a town hall on the "Today" show on NBC Thursday morning. "I think Harriet Tubman is fantastic, but I would love to leave Andrew Jackson or see if we can maybe come up with another denomination."

"(Jackson) had a history of tremendous success for the country," Drumpf said. "(The $20) really represented somebody really that was very important to this country. I would love to see another denomination and that could take place. I think that would be more appropriate."



Yeah, Jackson was a real stand-up guy, said no Native Americans ever.

I can't wait for the FB posts complaining about this.
And Andrew Jackson wasn't exactly one of our greatest presidents.

Anything I say ITT will just result in people calling me a racist.

I'm curious to see the image of Tubman they're going to use. She wasn't exactly photogenic (not a dig, I'm guessing it's impossible to emerge from decades of slavery as a supermodel). Then again Jackson wasn't a looker either and they made him look OK.

Without looking it up, wasn't he responsible for the Louisiana Purchase or something. If so, I'd say it was a pretty good deal.

It's so easy to judge people from the past isn't it.

I just like to think than Lin-Manuel Miranda single-handedly saved the $10

IT WASN'T FRANCE'S LAND TO SELL!!! ALL WHITE, BLACK, ASIAN, HISPANIC PEOPLE NEED TO LEAVE THE AMERICAS!!!

First you have to ask why Jackson, why not the ten, the five, the one, the one hundred, fifty.

Besides the Dakotas with the oil, did we get anything good from the purchase? I mean, besides land and the big river we got: Louisiana, Missouri, Arkansas, Oklahoma, Kansas, Nebraska, Iowa, Wyoming and Montana. We paid $15M
Now, the purchase of Alaska was really good business for $7.5M

Donald Trump wants the Tubman 20 to be worth 3/5ths of the Jackson 20.

I forget where I saw it today, but yes, I heard that the musical did cause this to happen.

Was this a serious post?

If you were to whine about putting a black person on your precious, steeped in tradition, currency, yes.

They could put Dane Cook on my money for all I care, as long as I can buy beer with it.

Tubman back on track.

That’s the second horrible racist president that Biden has replaced in less than one week.
