The U. of Iew

Wow. Just… wow. Look, I’m all for adding a splash of color to our money. There are other countries in the world that have had a lot of success with that. But… this? I just don’t know what to say about this. Mainly, I’m just appalled by the giant purple 5 in the lower right hand corner. Talk about an eyesore…

You know what I would like to see here in America? $1 and $2 coins. No, seriously- I really like them. A lot of people would argue that they’re not “convenient”, but I really don’t see the difference. Plus, they’re just neat. Or maybe that’s just me…

At any rate, the new $5 bill will go into circulation today. Try not to stare directly at the giant purple 5. It may cause permanent damage to your eyes.
