What are people's thoughts on this change that's going to occur?
-
Doesn't matter to me one way or the other.
-
I say leave well enough alone.
-
To me a $10 bill is a $10 bill..
Although i don't really pay to much attention about who is and who isn't on money i think it is nice to see a woman actually going on a bill... I have always wondered why there was never a woman on a bill or a coin in the first place..
But it is nice to see gender equality in this situation.
-
i hadnt heard that they were planning on switching the person on the bill but i think that it is a great idea and shows the younger generation that woman are just as good as men.
-
I think it is a great idea. The $1 coins with women were a bust, the Susan B Anthony was a weird size. Plus the $1 coin just not a popular thing to use anyway.
-
I say don't mess with what has been working all these years; just another expense the government can't afford. Probably gonna cost a whole lot to change the plates, etc. for what purpose? I'm a woman and have never had a thought one way or the other about only men being on the bills; doesn't make me any less of a woman.
-
If they do pick a woman for the $10.00 bill, it should be someone from our foundation as a country. Dolly Madison for example.

What change are you talking about? First I have heard of it.
-
I dont care if they put Draculas face on it.As long as its still worth $10.
-
I havent heard of it, to me it doesnt really matter, I dont know or care who is on our currency as is, I dont see that there is need to change things tho
-
As long as I can spend $10 it doesn't matter whose face is on it!

Because they are all the founding fathers of the country &/or Presidents
Once a woman gets to be President...
-
I hadn't heard about a change, either. In reading the thread I find it interesting to see how different all our viewpoints can be. I, personally, would like to see it stay the same. It seems wrong to mess with long standing traditions upon which this country was founded.
-
Yeah,I mean if Hamilton was important enough to put on the $10 in the first place,why take him off now?
Maybe they can make a $25 bill or something else and put a woman on it....
-
it doesn't really make a difference to me.. there are so many changes going on.. but i've noticed that there's not a lot of important changes.. xD
-
It's a good idea to me. Why not. We gave men the distinction for enough years, why not give women a shot?
-
I say leave well enough alone.
I agree, leave it alone.
-
I think it's not the best time to waste money redesigning something that already works, but that's my opinion. You can even have yours here:
The "theme" of the new bill will be "Democracy."

It's about time there's a woman on a bill. So far it's been all men on the bills.
-
I'm sorry. I don't agree with the ones who say there should be a woman put on currency just because it's never happened before; just because she's a female.
I believe it should be someone of great character and done as an honor, not as a gesture of equality.
That being said, I'm not sure what point it serves changing what we already have. What is that? Change for change's sake? :-\
:fish:
-
I have heard about this putting a woman on a $10 bill. They was thinking of putting Harriet Tubman on it.
-
Not sure it matters who is on it, but it will cause a problem for those who dont know anything about it cause when it first comes out they will think it is fake. :P
-
Women are more beautiful! THEY SHOULD BE on money! Lol
-
It's a mans world it's about time that women are being recognized
-
I think the government has gone batshit crazy - just leave the darn money alone - we like it fine!!!!! Why don't they just introduce a new coin - like they did with Sacajewea - that I wouldn't mind!
-
Why can't they just leave things alone. Worry about more important things !!!!!!! Who cares who is on our dollar bill. I don't !!!
-
Our currency is based on the president's from the USA. I think our currency picture's is good!
-
They should have been putting women on money it doesn't really matter though
-
That reminds me of Susan B. Anthony dollars that probably no longer circulate.
-
I don't like when they change the currency.
-
I think they should keep it the way it is, after all it is part of our history.
-
I say leave it alone. Why change something that everyone is familiar with. ::)

I would agree with you, but what if nobody liked someone or something anymore after he or she found out something disappointing about him/her/it?
-
My way of thinking is if it is not broken don't fix it. Our government is so broke now why put it debt anymore then they have too. If they do put a woman on the bill it had better be someone who really deserves it and not someone that is just a flash in the pan.
-
I think really does not matter as long as the money value are the same.
-
Leave it like it is, change will cost money and waste :bad:
-
I don't really care who is on the 10 dollar bill
-
money is money! as long as their is revenue backing it and I can spend it, I am HAPPY. LOL!! :) ;)
-
I say ....well it's about time :)
-
Never in a million years. There is a deeper meaning behind why the Presidents are on all bills... A deep deep meaning.
-
I think this would be interesting, but as long as there value in the bill, this change doesn't really phase me too much one way or another. I will probably still keep at least a few $10 of the current version on the side.
-
It does not matter to me either way!
-
My concern is not so much who's on it as much as it retaining it's value, and fulfilling my intended purpose.
-
first i'm hearing of this, who are they proposing
-
I say its about time we have a woman president and have a woman on money
-
As long as the value is the same, and not easy to make fake
-
I like how our money is made and I think it should stay the same. I think faces on those dollar bills 5 dollar bills, 10 and so on are the very first people who paved the way to make america the way it is now. So I think it should stay the way it is.
-
I think it's a great idea! Women do make up 50% of the population. Why should only men appear on our currency??
-
As long as it spends I don't care if they put Mickey Mouse on it .. a 10 dollar bill is a 10 dollar bill
-
I think it would be great to see a woman on the face our currency. It doesn't matter to me which piece of currency the picture is on. :)
-
They have to change the plates periodically anyway. so change them gradually to the new woman plates. Not a big deal.
-
I agree that it's thoughtful, but it's a terrible waste of money, time and resources. There are much bigger fish to fry.
-
i say its about time to be honest. Maybe confusing for some because never had a women on any money before here. But times are changing and why not . Women deserve there due to when it comes to this country its not just guys who helped form it
-
sounds ok to me,,,,,,,,, :thumbsup:
-
I think its weird, but hey now a days women do a lot of the things men do; this isn't any different.
-
The government should stop trying to CHANGE everything. It's time for Americans to stand up and say - enough is enough!!!!!!!!!!!!!
-
I'm glad to see them make the change. I vote for Eleanor Roosevelt.
-
It's one of the most ridiculous things I have ever heard. It is one thing to put a woman on our currency. It is quite another to take someone off of our currency. If they want to do it then I say come out with a new bill. Plus, don't do it just to do it. That is ridiculous also in my mind.
-
Will they be replacing Alexander Hamilton O_O.
-
I haven't heard of it yet but whats the difference if a woman is on the 10 dollar bill.
-
:) With an 18 Trillion dollar debt, we should put Alfred E. Newman on our money. :)
-
I think women should have their own money...Just like Queen Elizabeth.
-
I personally don't see any reason to change it, but it really doesn't affect or bother me. Just seems like a waste.
-
I think it is time we have a woman on our money .. We have to change the images every so many years so it makes scene to do a complete overhaul..
