Re:Hamilton to stay on $10; Tubman replacing Jackson by dnautics on Wednesday April 20, 2016 @01:26PM (#11536060)
I hate Andrew Jackson, and it's too bad he's going instead of Hamilton. I'd be all for replacing every statue of Jackson across the nation with, say, Tubman, but the one place where Jackson should stay is the money: it was long a snide reminder that if the central bank gets too out of hand in shoveling money into the faces of the wealthy at the expense of the people, a populist president could rise and take them down.

It's rather telling that we are going to lose this symbolism.

I would be for erecting a giant statue of Jackson in front of the federal reserve building in dc.
