Treasury: New $10 bill to feature woman

Treasury announced a redesign for the $10 bill.

Jack Lew, Treasury secretary, said by 2020, the U.S. $10 bill will feature the face of a female, in addition to that of Alexander Hamilton.

“The next generation of currency, starting with the new $10 note, will include various design features that celebrate democracy,” Treasury put out in a statement, the Blaze reported. “In keeping with that theme, Treasury Secretary Jacob J. Lew has decided that the new $10 note should feature a woman who was a champion for our inclusive democracy.”

...we’d be where we are today with the fedgov 20 years earlier?

It is an interesting thought exercise.

If Hamilton had not been killed, might he have become the 4th President? If so, might the War of 1812 not have happened? Would it still have happened but turned out differently? Might Hamilton have negotiated a reunification with England?

Might Hamilton instead have become the 5th President, displacing James Monroe? Would we still have had a Hamilton Doctrine declaring America free from future European colonization, or might America have developed into regional countries across the continent like Europe and South America?

>> the face of a female, in addition to that of Alexander Hamilton <<

I’m voting that Maria Reynolds should appear alongside Alex Hamilton, and Peggy Eaton should appear alongside Andy Jackson.

That would be the $3.00 bill not the $10.00.

Or maybe “native” American. Remember that Sacajawea coin? Quite a flop!

The law says you gotta be dead to appear on US currency. So if by any remote chance she’s ever chosen, she really won’t have a say in the matter.

This will probably be a woman of high moral character, like John Water’s Divine.

A scatological transvestite.

Perhaps as an alternative, Tim Curry in his role as Dr. Frankenfurter in The Rocky Horror Picture Show, would work, except that Curry is an Englishman.

Obviously Treasury Sec Lew, doesn’t know we don’t live in an inclusive democracy, we live in constitutional republic. One more ignorant, moronic, bureaucrat.

It'a worse than that. Hamilton wasn't a President. Besides Franklin on the $100, he's the only non-president on paper currency.

Salmon P. Chase is on the $10,000.

Why not Lady Liberty? She was good enough for all of our gold coins, and actually all of coinage up to the Civil War.

Remember when they put Susan B. Anthony on the $1 coin and the feminists complained that the early models looked too pretty so they made her look like a scowling old hag? That really went over well.

I cannot believe that no one has yet suggested that true representative of Progressive Feminism - Andrea Dworkin.

The oft-scorned Andrea Dworkin deserves this recognition.

Thanks Impy. Hamilton liked to cat around, probably one of his lovers should join him on the bill. :')
