[QUOTE="gboulton, post: 1285561, member: 27043"]Forgive me, I'm having trouble following your emotional sarcasm here. But...yeah. We can. Why not? I go to the bank regularly, cash a check, and hand the teller a note with the denominations and quantity of them I want. Not sure why it would be a problem to handle a new denomination. :scratch: Pretty sure we've already refuted this "risk". People don't wish to break $100's when there's no reason to. They don't want to hand out several $20's to make change for a $15 item, particularly when much of their currency flow is in smaller bills. That's not really going to change. For merchants that don't frequently trade in high dollar transactions, they simply won't move the new bills. For those that do, it's an attractive option. I wasn't aware they had to do any "good". Why can't they simply be convenient for those who wish to use them? If that's not enough, however... They'll circulate less, thus lasting longer than an equivalent amount of smaller denominations, which saves government costs. As compared to multiple small bills, a single large bill is faster and easier to count, saving time and increasing efficiency for merchants who transact them. Similarly, fewer physical bills leads, consistently, to fewer counting errors at both banks and merchants. Accounting discrepancies are reduced. They're easier to conceal than multiple smaller bills. I agree, 100% :)[/QUOTE]
