So, with this ruling, when are stores and restaurants going to have to start printing their cash register receipts, price tags and menu in Braile? They are sure to follow with a lawsuit saying that the blind have a right to know the correct prices, so no one cheats them.

This reads like a comedy skit.

How in heavens name did we make it to the 21st century?

I'm really glad the drive up atm is in braile.

[GSlob]

Well, cheating the blind is more reprehensible than cheating somebody who could at least see the cheat.

This is the same Judge that resigned from the FISA court.

Please explain what difference would the color of the money make to a blind person Judgie?

To the judge:

Oh yeah? Enforce it.

"when are stores and restaurants going to have to start printing their cash register receipts, price tags and menu in Braile"

Why not? How about the push for Ebonics, Spanish, broken English, etc.?

I know! The easy solution, since everything and everyone has to be fair and equal, is to make us ALL blind!

We could all have a leg amptutated too, so we can all be in wheelchairs. Great - now I can use the handicapped spaces.

Does this idiot know that our money is not printed by the government? Probably not.

It is printed by the Federal Reserve, not a part of our government.

[irishtenor]

I think ALL of our money should be different colors. That will surely help the blind.

[vox humana]

What's next? Braille computer monitors? The madness continues...

[Obie Wan]

The Federal Government has been complaining for years about how expensive it is to print paper money.I'm sure this brilliant ruling is going to increase the cost 10 times more then it is already !!!

[swmobuffalo]

I've read this a couple of times now and I'm still amazed at it. In my experience, the blind people I've seen handling money do it with relative ease. The bills are folded different ways so they know which denomination is which or they have someone with them that can see.

My question is how much is this going to cost the taxpayer? Seems to me printing bills all the same size saves money. Having to set up new print plates in different sizes would cost more than plates of one size, right?

[SCHROLL]

tell the judge he can pay for the changeover in paper stocks from his salary and see how fast he backtracks

[HannagansBride]

Where does this judge get the AUTHORITY to order anyone to do anything?

I don't understand this.
