We are becoming Euro-trash!

FTA: "Our great 'rival', the Euro, looks so spanky in comparison it seems the only clear way to revive this global recession is to rebrand and redesign,"

"Spanky"? ? Sounds like a bunch of weirdos are designing our money. Besides, do we really want to "reviive" the global recession? One would think, were one not into spanking so much, that we would want to shut down the recession, but hey, that's just me. YMMV

My favorite comment on the linked page:

based on the way the Federal Reserve devalues our money, I think we should redesign all our bills to looks like squares of toilet paper. Their only usefullness before too long will be as TP.

Also from the comments:

I think those designs are great! They make our money look more like the Euro money, which helps us move in that direction. I think the picture of President Obama is wonderful and what better symbol to have on our money to illustrate our transition to a more European socialist country. I wish they would move on these ideas much quicker.

Well, he got that right, as much as I hate the thought. Especially because Europe thinks socialism has failed and they are moving in our direction.
Anti: I think some of you gentleman would choose to apply a gun shaped remedy to any problem or potential problem that presented itself? Your reverance (sic) for firearms is maintained with an almost religious zeal. The mind boggles! it really does...

Me: Naw, we just apply a gun-shaped remedy to those extreme life threatening situations that call for it. All the less urgent problems we're willing to discuss.

Dead Presidents... Obama... yeah I'll vote for that.
""It may be laid down as a primary position, and the basis of our system, that every Citizen who enjoys the protection of a free Government, owes not only a proportion of his property, but even his personal services to the defence of it, and consequently that the Citizens of America (with a few legal and official exceptions) from 18 to 50 Years of Age should be borne on the Militia Rolls, provided with uniform Arms, and so far accustomed to the use of them, that the Total strength of the Country might be called forth at a Short Notice on any very interesting Emergency." - George Washington.

Even though a disgusting idea which I hope never happens, devaluing to the point of worthlessness should be a crime. Thinking about it maybe those designs should be a crime also. The change in your pocket really won’t have any value either, hell most of it is about like a washer from your local hardware store anyway.

Last election worthless change was voted in, now it is up to us to make change worth something again!
