Kids today!

They want everything, and they want it right now! ;)

Seriously though - is it worth waiting to have a woman on the US currency $20? If it was originally said that the change should happen to the $10 (because that was the next one set to be updated) should that proceed, regardless of the sudden popularity of Alexander Hamilton?

Should they just change both? Who should be on them?

Personally, I think all images currency should be changed to pictures of LJ Idol winners. I'm pretty sure there are some island nations that have already done this.


There will be no delay in the poll results though: http://therealljidol.livejournal.com/921038.html Those are coming tonight! So make sure to make your support for your favorites known!

Both my kids want Jackson off the $20 ASAP. Because of the evil.

My daughter doesn't want Hamilton replaced, because as the father of the Treasury, she thinks he deserves that spot!

I think if people had a good, easily-agreed-upon candidate for the first woman on a bill, this would probably already have happened by now. But it kind of has to be THE woman, since we have so few bills and they're most covered with presidents.

Unless we'd like to add some, like $30 and $30 and $75 as currency?
