"In God We Trust " on the US currency...So what do American atheists use for money[ so as not to feel like hypocrites]
Well it says "In God We Trust" but the second part of that (that they left off the money) is: All Others Pay Cash.
I've always thought what our money should say is:
Anything worth doing, is worth doing for money. But no one ever listens to me.
And there is no picture of god, just Dead Presidents, the big ones, 1- Washington, 2- Jefferson, 5-Lincoln, 20- Jackson, 50 - Grant, for the most part, but a few weirdos like 100 - Ben Franklin (real famous, not a president and 10 - Alexander Hamilton (invented money as American knows it) make appearances also.
We have weird ones:
The high-denomination bills were issued in a small size in 1929, along with the $1 through $100 denominations. The designs were as follows:
$500: William McKinley (Assassinated - so very dead president)
$1,000: Grover Cleveland (obscure at best dead president)
$5,000: James Madison (OK, wrote most of the Constitution, also dead, also a president)
$10,000: Salmon P. Chase (Sec of Treasury under Lincoln, Supreme Court Justice - and I don't know why he's got a bill.)
$100,000: Woodrow Wilson (highly controversial dead president)
But I've only seen a 500 once, and never any of the others. I think you have to go to the Federal Reserve Bank to get them.
