And so he saddled you guys with an inferior monetary system.<br />And no matter what else you may argue about monetary systems, the u.s.dollar is a drably boring bit of paper money, all the same colour, so far as I can see and only really differentiated by the number of noughts.<br />And your coins? nickels cents pennies dimes and whatever? What's a nickel? two bits.... talk about confusing......soubriquethttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01151288534629885195noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4148507369837201034.post-58733838886235298822009-11-23T21:28:22.808-07:002009-11-23T21:28:22.808-07:00According to this, Jefferson convinced the rest of...According to <a href="http://metricationmatters.com/docs/USAMetricSystemHistory.pdf" rel="nofollow">this</a>, Jefferson convinced the rest of the founding fathers to do with decimal money. Most of the founding fathers, by the way, were apparently pro metric. <br /><br />Too bad they forgot to put that in the Constitution.Stephanie Barrhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17772217449161603561noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4148507369837201034.post-5586273602310770112009-11-23T20:05:01.830-07:002009-11-23T20:05:01.830-07:00@A. - It is so worth it.

That's the old money, right? Jesus, don't get Stephanie started about the inefficiencies of shillings and stuff. Stick to the decimal pound. I don't know from nothing about base 12. I just barely learned what the heck a quid is. We have always been on the decimal system ever since you left us in the lurch. I think it was Hamilton who did that to us. Or Franklin. Probably Hamilton. When you left, you took your money with you.Relax Maxhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01051381168322495999noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4148507369837201034.post-74922166815410324312009-11-23T12:09:21.838-07:002009-11-23T12:09:21.838-07:00I hate you.
