Hell to the no.

The only bill with that image on it should be a Most Wanted poster

Can you put aside the TDS long enough to let us get a bill large enough to buy groceries? Can you? I promise you can change the picture to whoever you want as soon as he's out of office.
That is the silliest “argument” yet, well done!
Cash broke the gold barrier a while ago. A $100 bill weighs one gram, whereas one gram of gold is now $145 at today's spot price. https://www.kitco.com/charts/gold

That's a very dangerous position for a fiat currency to be in. You are concerned about which banana republic politician is on the bill. I'm concerned about carting a wheelbarrow full of worthless paper to the grocery for a loaf of bread. We're not the same.

Again I am impressed with the ridiculous response. The weight of a dollar bill vs the price of gold is of no consequence. The politicians trying to turn the USA into a “banana republic” certainly are. We are definitely not the same lol
Amusingly "250" (二百五) is Chinese slang for idiot or halfwit. Wonder if it is somehow deliberate ?

It would be nicer to have larger bills. When buying something expensive from a private party, like used cars or equipment it's always awkward to need such a thick wad of cash. A $100 bill doesn't go near as far as it used to, and barely covers a weekly grocery store trip for a small family.

Can't say I'm surprised. Digital currency and zero privacy cashless society is what they've been working on for decades.
