The dollar with the flag in the middle, or the one with Obama :couch are my two favorites.

Next time you go to a fast food joint ask if they accept "federal reserve notes". Most of the time they will ask a manager and then tell you they don't accept them. Then pull out a dollar bill and point out the "federal reserve note". :D

I'm an a**, I know.

As long as they adopt the type of bills that Australia uses with the plastic. SO they don't tear and water doesn't ruin them, I don't care what they put on them.

In a few years it will only be good as toilet paper so whatever design the non-governmental organization chooses to put on money not actually issued by the government of this country please make it soft and pliable. I have a sensitive tushy.

MY wallet says no thank you. I'm super anal about lining up bills with everyone facing the same way and being neat and orderly...different sized currency would be a nightmare.

I'm a little OCD about the money in my wallet. It all has to be in order, smallest bills in front, largest in back. All facing the same way. If different bills were different sizes, I'd have a panic attack.

it would actually be better if you think about it... kinda like a filing system has a tab that sticks up higher than the rest, well money would just have a larger bill stick up higher than the rest.

...it worked well for me when I was using Euros.

I would then find the uneven crease in my money annoying lol...unless I used a vertical wallet, but I'm not a fan of those either.

I love this one too. I would love to see that as currency, but that's about the only one on that list.

Blind people was my first thought about the different sizes too. This would make handling money so much easier for them. I'm not sure I'd like it, but I'm sure I would get used to it.

And seriously people.... Obama? :nono: :facepalm:

lol I'm quite happy with the current system. If it ain't broke, don't fix it.

Or I guess in the words of the US gov: "If it ain't broke, fix it till it is."

Good God. What moron came up with THIS?

"Designer money" is the best answer these cretins could come up with? Please, please don't let these people vote or reproduce.

Awesome thread, though... and despite the retarded premise of the whole thing, some of those designs are awesome.
