Civil Rights & Women Leaders Going On $5, $10, and $20 Bills

Andrew Jackson getting replaced by Harriet Tubman on $20 bill, Hamilton to stay on $10

Treasury Secretary Jack Lew on Wednesday will announce plans to both keep Alexander Hamilton on the front of the $10 bill and to knock Andrew Jackson off the front of the $20 in favor of Harriet Tubman, sources tell POLITICO. Lew is expected to roll out a set of changes that also include putting leaders of the women's suffrage movement on the back of the $10 bill, and incorporating civil rights era leaders and other important moments in American history into the $5 bill.

Also, Jackson isn't getting completely booted off the $20 bill. He's likely to remain on the back. Lew's reversal comes after he announced last summer that he was considering replacing Hamilton on the $10 bill with a woman. The plan drew swift rebukes from fans of Hamilton, who helped create the Treasury Department and the modern American financial system. Critics immediately suggested Lew take Jackson off the $20 bill given the former president's role in moving Native Americans off their land.

Seriously why change it? Does anyone really give a rats ass who's damn picture is on it? So long as it still buys you 20 bucks worth of goods or services I bet you don't. I know I don't. There could be no picture on our money at all for all I care.

Besides, why change it now, when cash is on it's it way out of our society anyhow, more and more people are paid through direct deposit, and then using their cards when shopping now days. Some people even simply swipe their phone over the register and keep on walking. More and more people are shopping online instead of in an actual store, where no cash exchange at all takes place. And the banks, along with the Treasury are really pushing for us to go to an entirely cashless society anyhow.

This is some of the leftists and their white guilt crapola being pushed to the extreme. Ladies and gents. We should all be ashamed because it's always been white male presidents on the money folks. 

I hope the next POTUS walks in and puts Nancy Reagan's ass on the dollar bill then. Yeah time for ol George to go.  He can stay on the quarters though.

The replacement of Andrew Jackson on the front of the new $20 bill with abolitionist Harriet Tubman isn't the only change to new versions of U.S. currency announced Wednesday — five leaders of the women's suffrage movement will also be featured on the back of the $10 bill.

I think his photo on EBT cards would be quite appropriate The increase in this entitlement is a truly earned legacy of his.

It did seem a bit...unproportional...that there will be a black person on every one of our bills, when only 12% of our spenders can claim to be in that category.

Biographer Kate Clifford Larson has noted Tubman was <comfortable with guns>:
http://www.harriettubmanbiography.com/harriet-tubman-myths-and-facts.html

Harriet Tubman carried a small pistol with her on her rescue missions,
mostly for protection from slave catchers,
but also to encourage weak-hearted runaways
from turning back and risking the safety of the rest of the group.
Tubman carried a sharp-shooters rifle during the Civil War.
