Why I Don’t Think a Woman Should be on the $20 Bill

Today it was announced that Harriet Tubman will replace Andrew Jackson on the $20 bill, and I have a problem with that.

Before you throw things at me through your computer, hear me out.

I absolutely think a woman should be on American currency. Absolutely, 100 percent yes. Go women, equal rights, I want to see women's faces every time I open my wallet.

The issue I have is not with a woman on a bill, it's with the process.

Let's start with the fact that a few months ago we heard that there was a high chance that a woman would be on our money. Score one for women!

But, we were told that a woman would replace Alexander Hamilton on the $10 bill. Now, after a new musical, "Hamilton" seems to be blowing everyone away, Alexander gets to stay on the $10.

I'm sorry, what? We all had these plans for a woman to be on the $10 and then a musical's popularity about a guy who makes us all think of a "Got Milk?" commercial changes the entire plan? That's pretty ridiculous.

Who's to say a new Andrew Jackson restaurant might not become popular in the next year or so and Harriet will be bumped to a different bill?

This perfectly explains why I think a women should not be on the $20. I think that we women should get our own bill.

How about the $7 bill? Or the $15 bill? A $25 bill actually makes a lot of sense, the $40 does too.

Obviously you think I'm nuts for suggesting this, but think about it.

Way back when all the bills we are used to now didn't exist, we managed to spend money.

If we introduced a new dollar amount in bill form, we would get used to it too.

Then everyone can associate Harriet Tubman, Oprah and Taylor Swift (a joke, of course) with their respective bill amounts, which would be awesome for women and then, poor, dead, Andrew Jackson can stay on his wrinkled twenties.

Also, huge congratulations to women everywhere for this decision, it is awesome, I would just prefer if Harriet graced us on the "7."
