The Perils of Identity Politics

When you start monkeying around with iconic faces on American currency in the name of political correctness and identity politics, you run the risk of being overtaken by shifting trends in the culture. That’s the moral of the story of the Obama administration’s now-aborted plans to replace Alexander Hamilton’s portrait on the $10 bill. Treasury Secretary Jack Lew had announced that the first person to hold his office would be ousted last summer in order to make way for a female, though he hadn’t decided which American woman would get the honor.

This push to put a woman any woman because of what she has or in fact does not have between her legs on us currency just goes to show how worthless the central bank really is. Buy gold and silver.

The fear-mongering over imaginary plots by the right is truly entertaining.

A couple questions for you:

1. What would liberals stand to gain by destroying the nation?
2. Are only presidents eligible to be represented on our currency?

They = the Federal Reserve.

I don't know. But I do know that if Trump wins, this is not going to happen.
Trump's Secretary of the Treasury would rescind the plans.

Well I didn't see this thread before I made mine but Harriet Tubman will be on the 20 dollar bill

Treasury to keep Hamilton on $10, put Tubman on $20

Currency is on the way out. So making idiots happy with half hearted gestures has worked well in the past and seems to work well now. Next up will be pox ridden blankets and beads.

I hope all of you can see how racist and sexist this selection is. Essentially it was determined that this one must be a woman and must be black.

I didn't call it affirmative action for nothing!
