I have no problem removing Andrew Jackson from the $20 bill and replacing him with someone better.

Putting Jane Fonda on 20-dollar bills would cause a revolt.

I think the millionaire dude that is on Monopoly money would be a fitting replacement

What would be on the back? I think the back should have some connection to who's on the front. Like the way the Lincoln Memorial is on the back of the five or the United States Treasury building is on the back of the ten (Alexander Hamilton was the first Secretary of the Treasury)

Yes, it would show who owns the utility.

It's the history of this country, and that's that.

I don't see any issue with replacing Jackson's picture on the $20.

Of course you don't.

I'd rather see the warmonger Lincoln (with 400,000+ of his own countrymen's blood on his hands) removed from the $5. If ever there was a dubious character on any of our currency it would be him.
