The Change in U.S Currency

「✧Aɴɪᴍᴀ✧」 · Apr 25, 2016

So they recently gave out the new that the 5 Dollar Bill, The 10 Dollar Bill and 20 Dollar Bill will be changed in 2020. What is your Opinion about this? You don't need to be a someone from the US to have Opinion on this by the way. All responses should be respect as well.
More information is on this Link.
I think this is a GREAT idea but it seem like the US took a while to do this.

I'm from the US and I also think it's a great idea, but according to the article the back of the $10 will soon be overpopulated with 5 new faces and the March of 1913. While it's great that women's suffrage is represented (and it very well should be), it shouldn't be overdone with that many figures when there are many other good choices for historical figures around. I definitely think that Franklin Roosevelt deserves to be on some sort or currency. Theodore Roosevelt was also a great president and established national parks, and FDR helped preserve land and gave others jobs during the Great Depression. If I had to invent a new bill face, it'd feature one of America's iconic national parks and have both of the Roosevelts on it.

Canada's done similar! Except we didn't change the people on the bills but rather the bills themselves (They're like a plastic now) for anti counterfeit.
It does take a while because they have to redo the entire thing and reprint them and everything lol.

They're also going to change the Australian $5 note.

Anyway, drifting back on topic, it won't really concern me, but changing the image of money has both its positives and negatives, as people will agree and disagree. Here in Australia, many people are criticising the new $5 note (and some to a rude extent), but I think it will be a good idea to put some new faces on the money of historical figures.
