From The Stream:

The New York Times is trying to stoke demand for the replacement of Andrew Jackson on the $20 bill, citing his cruel treatment of Indians. That has a certain logic to it, whether or not you agree. Besides, the Times says, it’s time we had a woman on some of our currency. Again, fair enough.

But it’s hard to take the paper’s objections to racism or its respect for women  seriously when one of the candidates presented in the Times‘ symposium is Planned Parenthood founder Margaret Sanger, a sexual libertine who fought to make birth control not just legal but mandatory — for members of racial and social groups whom she considered “inferior.”

Oh indeed the one can have any photo put over George and the number of celebs that have had their photo done so are legion. Just do a search or check ebay and you can see them. Here are some funny defaced bills.

Is the NYT also pointing out that Andrew Jackson was a DemocRAT?

They might allow Custer to be on the $20.00 bill and then put the Custer National Battlefield on the back!

The only irony with Jackson on the 20 is he HATED fiat money.

If they are going to change make it Harriet Tubman. She saved lives.

It would only appropriate, considering I hear it’s the going rate for a curb job. How much more appropriate for it to be a Sanger than a Jackson.

The USA once had beautiful coinage and currency , prior to beginning the practice of using images of real people early in the 20th century.
