Redesign the Dollar

Bierut thinks it is time to redesign our currency because “the quickest fix for a brand in trouble, some say, is nothing more than a cosmetic makeover.”
Again, maybe these economic concepts escape me, but this seems like a complete waste of time. We’d have to spend money designing it, printing it, and distributing it. And what do you think will happen to all of the green backs? Are little money gnomes (leprechauns) going to come out at night and exchange the new for the old? It will take time and money for this plan to even begin to be useful; and it seems to me that its affect will be negligible.
