I want to know Bloombergs definition of "in circulation"....because ugh...in the real world, there's probably 12x as many 20's floating around than hundos, if not more.

Hey Pooh,
Will it make you feel any better if I told you we are essentially memorializing a slave by putting her face on a piece of cotton?
Someone on my FB shared a post stating that this was no more than re-enslavement and that blacks should be fighting against this.
a few nuggets:
Having Harriet Tubman on the $20 is nothing to be celebratory about, rather it is actually quite sickening.Imagine black people passing $20's around with her face on it to buy and deal drugs, or throwing $20's in the air making it rain on stripper. To buy guns that's only used in cases to kill each other. To buy poor quality foods, getting into clubs, for prostitution, or murder, or worst, to give the face of a slave in the collection plate of white Jesus ( how symbolic is that?), and the immoral list goes on.But I thought Jesus wasn't white?Furthermore,if white people trust in God so much, and declaring it by writing it on their currency, then why not put White Jesus on the $20 instead of Ms. Tubman? Because money is at the root of all evil. Imagine Jesus involved in the buying and selling of drug transaction, or prostitution transactions, don't make moral "christian" sense does it? But somehow it does for Harriet Tubman?
Pooh what's your thoughts on Strahan getting paid 10 figures to go to GMA?
Not exactly. It's because US $100 bills are overwhelmingly used as means to store wealth by instititutions and individuals overseas. (1) foreign governments need a sound currency to back their own currency, and (2) individuals overseas don't trust the banks in their country.Originally Posted by Dan Druff
$100 almost as common as the $1 bill now, and more common than the $20.
That's because the $100 bill is now worth LESS than the $20 was in the early '70s.
And there's some calls to eliminate the $100 bill completely!
What we need is a $500 bill. Won't happen, but I would love to see it.
I don't care whose picture is on it.
This Planet Money episode discusses how the Federal Reserve estimated that about 2/3rds of hundos in circulation are held overseas.

5 Questions for People Who Are Outraged Over Harriet Tubman on our $20 Bill
1. Why do you really care? Has the image of Andrew Jackson on the $20 had a profound impact on your life? If so, please, tell me how.
2. Can you please list all the ways Harriet Tubman being on the $20 is going to make your life worse or make you feel like less of an American?
3. Be honest, before all of this became a story, did you really even know who was on the $20? In fact, can you list who’s on each of the following: $1, $5, $10, $50, $100 – as well as the penny, dime and quarter? And before I asked this question, had you really ever wasted much of your time (aside from maybe outside of a middle school Social Studies class) thinking about it?
4. Give me a good reason why an American hero who risked her life as a spy for the Union in the pursuit of freeing human beings from the horrific nightmare of slavery doesn’t deserve to be honored more so than a president who’s best known for his barbaric treatment of Native Americans?[/b] 5. Many have claimed this isn’t about racism. Well, then tell me, do you really think there would be this big of an uproar by many on the right if they were replacing Andrew Jackson with Ronald Reagan, Nancy Reagan or any other white historical figure who Republicans idolize?

Pooh I thought you wiped your ass with 20's?
Let's just put the queen of England on there for shits and giggles
If your man Trump gets elected and ruins the economy, it will be the $20 bill that is worthless!
doesn't it make more sense to put tubman on the front of ebt cards?
I really don't give a fuck either way but in all honestly if you belive in Old Hickory and what he stood for you already know he has no place on any fiat currency bill to begin with.
That said he was an actual president, they should shit can Hamilton if you ask me.
And for those of you who think we need a $500, $1000, $5000 Etc bill you are 100% right.
Problem is every government official including police are way against this. if $100's weren't already in circulation as much as they already are they would nuke them and make the $50 the "big bill". Big brother wants it all in digital money and Visa/MC are all willing to help.

Nobody is more deserving of being on our money than Alexander Hamilton. He literally created the Treasury Department and our national economy - the most successful one in the history of the planet.
He was brilliant, but also a retard in agreeing to a duel.Nobody is more deserving of being on our money than Alexander Hamilton. He literally created the Treasury Department and our national economy - the most successful one in the history of the planet.
Thomas Jefferson disagrees, as do I. But it's all ancient history at this point. He's not completely undeserving for reasons you mentioned.Nobody is more deserving of being on our money than Alexander Hamilton.

America doesn't have enough racist slave owners to put on U.S. currency.
Back in the day in most duels, it was understood that you would not actually aim at the other person. It was more of a ritual than a battle. Burr is one of the most ambitious and slimiest politicians in US history. He would definitely be right at home in today's political climate.He was brilliant, but also a retard in agreeing to a duel.
aren't they thinking about shitcanning the 500 euro for the reasons daly mentioned?
