So, Uncle Sam is ready to release a new hundred dollar bill. Should we say w00t!? Forgive me for saying so, I seriously doubt it. First of all, who is paying for all this redesigning and retooling? Oh of course, we are, that would be the US Citizens. When I was a kid, I always thought that the U and the S, implies us. A naive view on what I thought democracy was.
Personally, I would have rather see them create some type of new value for this bill. The new bill doesn't impress me any more with it's looks any more than the old one. Rarely, have I even seen the the old ones. Like many, if not most of us, I seldom see more than a thin stack of twenties.
Like many or most, quarks rival the stay of currency in my wallet... Too little in and too much out. Honestly, put Mickey Mouse on the mo-fo and make it spend mo! That is the new bill I want!
This is nothing more than putting a wedding dress on a crack whore and claiming she is a lady of value. Seriously, we don't need a new hundred dollar bill. We need the old ones to be worth something.
