Well damn. Amusing how sometimes something can be both funny and sad.
Kinda revealing of our country right? I prefer our old motto on money. E Pluribus Unum was what it originally said which is Latin for out of many, one. Benjamin Franklin then designed a coin that was "mind your business", and another that said "we are one". Now it's "in god we trust" which as an anti-theist I've gotta say, doesn't fit me at all.
