FRN = Federal Reserve Note (aka US dollar)

Just curious as to what people think. Hamilton sure would be proud, no doubt. I'm also thinking Washington would be very upset. Lincoln wouldn't care. Franklin is a toss up.

You have to excuse the obvious stupidity in his rambling thoughts--probably a Libertarian.

The u and i are in close proximity on the keyboard. I can assume that responders are equally clueless since they offer no intelligent opinion.

Lighten up Francis, I was just teasing. No, I don't believe Jefferson would be disgusted by his likeness appearing on a FDN.

I also think it's ironic that both Jefferson (who HATED central and/or national banks) and Jackson are on FRNs. Jackson destroyed the first central bank, and was nearly assassinated for his troubles. That's gratitude for ya...

If the American People allow private banks to control the issuance of their currency, first by inflation and then by deflation, the banks and corporations that will grow up around them will deprive the People of all their Property until their Children will wake up homeless on the continent their Fathers conquered. "

Oh well, can't fix stupid.

Thanks for showing why, when voting between a Republican or a Libertarian, I always choose the Republican. The Road to Serfdom makes good toilet paper.
