Kind of ironic how they're anti-US, yet have no qualms about counterfeiting US currency...

I don't see how that is ironic. Since they can't attack the US directly, why not attack it economic by printing counterfeit bills?

Well, it would be kinda dumb to be all pro-US and then turn around and try to devaule their currency in the form of Trillions of dollars in counterfeit bills...

In this age of electronic payment (credit cards and internet banking), one might ask why indeed we maintain large denomination bills.


Kind of outdated.


I agree with the authors' suggestion. Nada above the 20$ bill.

They've been doing this for decades.

Want to know what is really funny? (well, not funny really...) The number of people who will read this and fail to understand the implications.
