A Woman On The New $20 dollar bill.

[Teelie]

Yeah, that was the strangest part of it. Is it really going to take that long to make new designs?

You forget that not only do they have to do the design and find it appropriate and approved, but they have to stick in all manner of ways to defeat counterfeitting. They can't just stamp out a new $20 with Tubman (or anyone else's face) on it and call it a day.

 

[THUNDERSTRIKE]

I don't give a **** who's on it, as long as I can still spend it...

 

[MessiahDecoy123]

Neither Jackson nor Tubman are visually appealing. We need some hot people on the money.

You, homie. I heard you like strippers so I put strippers on money so you can put strippers on strippers.

 

[Erzengel]

I'll have no problem sliding Harriet Tubman down some stripper's underwear.

 

[MessiahDecoy123]

I wonder how many strippers will rethink their lives after looking at a pile of Harriet Tubman's staring at them.

 

[Enriquespy]

She wanted change, now she is.

It depends: is the club actually named "The Underground Railroad"?

[Greens]

No way. That was a solid joke.

 

[Kahran Ramsus]

So yeah, good bye and good riddance. And thanks to Hamilton The Musical for saving it's namesake's place on the $10 bill. Personally, I'd have chose MLK Jr. or Frederick Douglas, someone more recognizable by the average citizen. But Tubman I guess makes everyone happy. Maybe if they ditch Grant down the line (another one who doesn't really make sense) MLK could go there.

Grant won the war that saved the Union and freed the slaves. If we are going by importance, the low man on the totem pole is probably Franklin.

At the very least, hopefully they'll not mind as much when one of the girls that went to the joint with ya starts raking in the bills you're throwing at the strippers.

I want the guy's parrot on the back of the new $20.

Franklin contributed a lot to the government, society and the world in general that isn't comparable. What he did was massive in his own way. Jackson's contributions are overshadowed by the controversies around him and he is definitely less reputable than Franklin would be.

Much apreciated.

What will you call the new $20.00 Bill with Harriett Tubman on it?

A Harriett, A Tubman or a Harri Tubs?

The airhead stripper will be so clueless to the change and think you are giving them counterfeit money and throw it away.

I'm already thinking of it as a Tubman. Like some people call $20's Jacksons.

 

[Lily Adler]

It's all about the Tubmans! But nothing beats those Woodrows.

The conservative gadfly said it is "racist" and "sexist" to say a woman or person of color should be added to currency. "Here's what's really happening, this is liberal activism on the part of the president, that's trying to identify people by categories and he's divided us on the lines of groups. ... This is a divisive proposal on the part of the president and mine's unifying. It says just don't change anything."

I think we all know the rightful person to be on all of our bills is Donald Trump.

* Paid for the Make America Great campaign.

Scary thing is - if the nightmare comes to pass, Trump's dream will happen. *shudders*

They have to get a better picture though, she looks really, really angry or very sad.

Imo, this is the only picture they should use (or if there's any other flattering ones out there like this):

The others... would either make me nervous about getting a twenty dollar bill or sad... (which it's obvious why Harriet looks like that, those were really hard times - pretty sure most don't want to be swayed emotionally by a dollar bill)

Fortunately they aren't going to vote on this, at least in part I suspect because the Senator misunderstood the definitions of racism and sexism when he claimed that putting a woman on the $20 was somehow either of those.

Even the most GOP-iest of them roll their eyes at that.

 

[MessiahDecoy123]

Some conservatives have used the knee jerk accusation of reverse racism so much they don't even try to give it proper context anymore.
