A complete overhaul of the U.S. Currency.........?

I have had this idea in my head for some time now and I thought to myself, where else could I get better feedback then from the AR community. The following (I can't stress this enough) is not the opinions or ideas of anyone I associate with and or work for, past and present. We, and when I say we I am referring to our entire Country, have an issue with the outside world and corrupt business. The outside world, being everything else not deemed US soil, has us marked as the greedy overstuffed and spoiled Americans (remember these are only my opinions) and corrupt business... well their just corrupt. So what I am proposing is something we've done before and quite frankly almost overnight, so here goes.

This would need to be implemented in a very short time span... meaning days 10 at most. A complete overhaul of the U.S. Currency "Paper Money" to be changed and accounted for then replaced with the new and improved paper. Meaning all cash turned in would need,...wait for it, "A paper trail" If none is provided it will not be replaced with the new currency leaving it kinda like "Confederate Money". This would alleviate all the funds being used for illegal and immoral actions as well as laundering, payola and just all around corrupt business practices.

This in turn would cause many politicians to immediately rethink their careers and move on probably overnight, leaving those vacant seats for the new untainted wave of political blood needed. So, in my opinion this is how to produce change in the country.

There is so much more needed to create this but as we all do on ocassion,I had to vent!

haha Love it! Unfortunately a such a scenario is highly improbable especially when the Federal reserve, Wall Street & many US Banks have instruments and investments that are astoundingly lacking in their "paper trails"

Patrick ... seems that since the Fed is planning on printing what, some $300 to buy treasury bonds ... did I say printing I mean making a journal entry .... while on the surface I agree ... one of the institutions with the most difficult papertrail to prove ... would be our own government.  But then, maybe that's not all bad either!  Interesting thought!

Patrick, actually I heard something very similar to your proposition many years ago except the idea was simply to change the color of money pretty much over night...interesting idea.

I just started laughing out loud, imagining all the scrambling and explaining and spinning in circles this would create. We'd all need to make sure we have a 10 (make that 20!) day supply of food, heating oil, etc. because everything would be chaos.
