Artist Laura Gilberts' print 'The Zero Dollar' protesting the breakdown of the American economy. Gilbert distributed 10,000 of the fake greenbacks in front of the New York Stock Exchange on Tuesday, Oct. 7, 2008 to call attention to the economic crisis gripping the nation.

I don't think that this is all that creative, but artistic expression of economy is cool regardless.

I think its pretty stupid to do it on a 1 dollar bill, I think it stupid in general, lol I mean I respect money and the founding father, this whole economic thing seems to be getting peopled worked up, but American dollars actually appreciated by 50% in 3 days in other words its not our economy suffering but the global economy is suffering.

![]() the dollar actually appreciated, so right now would be a great time to travel, for instance .90 wons used to be 1 dollar, and now in just 3 days 1.5 wons = 1USD. so finacial investors from other countries are struggling because it the dollar appreciated by 50% so basically its like a 50% interest to the global economy and a slight depreiciation in ther American economy. America can withstand being pretty stable on its own for a while though cause our country is so big and we have New York. But as for the art, I dont like how it has Washington with a zero, she should have changed washington to Bush or should have changed it to Henry Paulson and then put a zero |
