    that's a great idea, I going to start doing that...I'll put
    -"Why is it not called terrorism when it's carried out by the United States?"
    -"Mankind must put an end to war or war will put an end to mankind"
    -"Impeach BUSH!"
    -"make love, not war"
    -"peace now"

    Great idea! I'll post it on another forum & let them know about it. w/ any luck, it will work ;) this country is run by money so why not hit em where we know it will be seen?

    Peace & Love

    heres a quote from Bertrand russell: war doesnt determine who's right, only who's left

    ~war wont bring peace
    ~no more blood for oil
    ~iraq, the new vietnam
    ~no more lies, bush
    ~where's the wmds?
    ~no more troops

    just a few ideas... ill post more when i think of them :)

    if everyone does this, we can make an impact (albeit a small one;))

    peace & love

    hehe i used to do that when i was younger. i'd do stuff like cross out the "god" and put "lies" in the "in god we trust" and add on to the pictures. i like getting bills that people have messed with.

    I've been doing this ever since I saw that movie 'Twenty Bucks' about the twenty dollar bill. Good idea.

    how about 'I AM YOUR GOD'?

    or, alternately 'YOU ARE MY SLAVE'?
    or simply 'worship me'??

    Does anyone know if there are any laws or anything against that?

    I just don't want people to stop taking my money. Not taking...accepting.

    yeah, it's hard to picture anyone refusing cold hard cash because it has something written on it. Besides, as far as I know, yeah, you're not supposed to write on money, but then again, I think they have to accept it as legal tender regardless.

    Oh, that's a great idea! I'm going to try and convince as many people as possible to do this. Ha, now I wish I had more money! ;)

    What an ace idea!!! I can't see anyone refusing the money cos over here in England I don't know about in America alot of notes have numbers written on them where accountants or bankers have written on them when they've been counting it. And if you are questioned just say that was how you got it, there not going to make a fuss over a bit of writing!!!

    Amazing idea!!!!!! Get the message round!!!!!

    This is a great idea. I'm going to do it on all of my bills right now. Maybe this will really take off. Spread the word everyone!

    I love this idea.

    I used to write the Fight Club quote "You are not the contents of your wallet." on my bills. I got some weird looks from cashiers, but I'd just stare at them, and say, "That's right" and smile. I hope it made them think.

    I'm with ya bro, good plan. I think Rage Against Machine was advocating this on one of their CD booklets. I can't remember the messages though.

    I love the idea. True, it won't change the world but it will make people think. Probably piss off the conservatives too and that's cool. How weird would it be to start making bills and then get one marked by someone else? I 've gotten marked bills, but never with a positive message.
