Dont bother responding.
Not to pull a Star, but given the flood of threads i saw by you prior to checking in on this one? You're a tool, and ignoring you will do nothing but enhance my daily posting experience.

I have an idea for what we should put on a $20 bill. How about an image of Nikola Tesla shooting a frickin lightning bolt at the corpse of Thomas Edison. That would be awesome.

Norway actually updated its currency to remove people from the bills entirely. And you know what? The money looks fine without people.

Yeah, I'd rather take people off of it. And get the words "God" off of it.

I can agree with that.

But another person had a great idea: only put high-achieving intellectuals on money. Praise knowledge and intelligence rather than power and war.

So our $1 bill may have Nikoli Tesla. $5 might be Niels Bhor. $10 might be Marie Curie. $20 might be Richard Feynman. $50 might be Robert Goddard. And the $100 might be Sally Ride (this one is a big deal, imo...that's why I saved her for the $100 bill).

Who was the one that suggested our money have scientists and intellectuals as opposed to War Gods and politicians? It is not my original idea.

I agree, intellectuals would be awesome actually. Scientists and shit. Social and political causes are fine, but it's the science that really helps out this world the most.

Would you guys prefer they put me on the 20?

If the word "God" is that big an issue, stop using cash. 😛

Yeah but if people are bugged so much by Jackson being on it then they should stop using 20's. Now if you said that to whiny feminists they'd flip out.

I mean if we're going to get so up in arms as to who is on these bills lets at least make a rule of "no fictional beings" on it. Otherwise I want Bugs Bunny on the dollar bill and Sterling Archer on the $50.

I think if you're going that route there should be at least one artist/writer/philosopher in the mix, after all, knowledge isn't just hard science. 🙂

True, but then again the reason I'm still alive right now isn't because of art or philosophy. If we had to limit it to one thing..I'd go with "hard science" for the win.

Perhaps, but as the writer Tim O'Brien said last night at his book signing, without the arts there'd be little point in living. Would you want to live in a world without music, art, fiction, tv, movies, comics, etc? I wouldn't.

I know but just think of it dude...a lightning bolt being flung at Thomas Edison from Nikola Tesla. That is going to make people want to keep their money just to look at it.

It's possible Tesla could be riding an elephant while doing this, because that prick Edison killed a f*cking elephant just to prove a point.

So you want people to keep their money rather than spending it, thus hurting economic growth.

I always knew you were Red Chinese sent to destroy our first rate economic power.

What can I say..they make good opium.

If we're going with OV's "artist on money" tree-hugging, wouldn't-hurt-a-squirrel, beatnik, soy-milk-drinking nonsense, then put Jimmy Hendrix on the $20.00

Eww soy milk? Gross, I have standards. Almond milk at least.

No you don't, you put lentils in your burrito. Lentils!

I'd love a Purple Haze themed dollar bill. It's the only legit reason to have purple money(I'm looking at you Brazil)
