<p>[QUOTE=&quot;v8americanpower, post: 12922, member: 1123&quot;]In an internet site by Barrons or Wall Street Journal or something similar they were discussing the possibility of ELIMINATING the $20 bill and making a new, $25 dollar bill with Reagan&#039;s bust on it.&nbsp; As crazy or as drastic as it may seem, they raised 2 key points:</p><p><br /></p><p>1) Less paper saves money - They would have to produce fewer total bills and replace fewer total bills, saving the govt. millions every year.</p><p><br /></p><p>2) Bigger bills mean more spending in the economy - If the midrange bill of choice was bumped up from 20 to 25, this would mean that consumers would carry around bigger bills and more total money which they could then spend and boost the economy.</p><p><br /></p><p>They also stated that they would like to see Ronnie on a $15 bill (wtf?)</p><p><br /></p><p>My personal opinion says we should either remove Kennedy from the half dollar piece (admit it, Kennedy doesnt deserve to be on a coin period), or make a $5 coin much in the image of the Canadian $2 coin with Reagan on the front and the Pentagon/Arlington Cemetary on the reverse.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
