for those who thought the twenty couldn't look any more like Monopoly money...

New $20

Look again.

And if you have Flash, you can get a virtual tour.

I mean, geez, can't they stick to *one* colour?

That said, I like Canadian bills.

[Edit: For those having troubles, here's what the current $20 looks like:

Yeah. And I thought *this* one was ugly.]

From the banking point of view...I don't care how ugly they are as long as they are harder to counterfeit!

Andrew Jackson looks more distinguished in the new bill.

You SHOULD like Canadian bills. They rule. And they've been, for a long time, much more difficult to counterfeit than American bills. I like the new nifty bright coloured Canadian bills. They look like European money. Or African. Or something else nifty.

US currency is probably some of the drabbest around the world. I'm not surprised to see them start trying to make paper currency more complicated to counterfeit, since it's been so simple and easy for so long. Though I think all paper currency is pretty ugly anymore so....
