OPEN THREAD: Money Matters–Wait Why Get Rid of Hamilton, Why Not Jackson?

June 19, 2015 History, Open Thread 46 Comments

I almost forgot, so, consider this the weekend’s open thread… but first…

The US Treasury just said that it intends to take founding father Alexander Hamilton off the $10 bill and replace him with a famous woman.

But…uh..why?

Hamilton was one of our most important founders. If anyone deserves to be on our money it is him.

So, why not replace Andrew Jackson? Hero of the War of 1812 or not, a case can be made that he should be replaced.

Anyway, consider this the open thread so, talk amongst yourselves…
