Amazing. Now the Fed can't even PRINT money.

If someone at the mint was smart, they would sell the screwed up bills
as collectors items. :-)

It would work if they didn't sell many of them.

Someone probably has. ;-)
With the cost to sort them ballanced against the 12 cents to print
them, they should just grind up the whole works and start over.

That's $120M down the tubes. It's worth a year of an engineer's time to try
to figure out a way to salvage them.

Worst part is, they cannot EVER print the same bills again, because if
any have leaked out to the "market" there could be unauthorized
currency in circulation.

Huh? If they get this Fubar fixed they can (and will) print all day and
night.

Means they have to redesign and cut ne plates before more can be
printed.
I meant if they shred the bills. - (or if they loose track of ANY of
this first batch)
