Double-sided printed replica of the U.S. two dollar bill criticizing Richard Nixon's economic policies. Text at the top and bottom reads "The Inflated States of America", "Two Frozen Dollars". A caricature of Nixon with both hands raised making a "V" gesture and a crossed fingers gesture is in the center, replacing the normal portrait of Thomas Jefferson. The cartoon is captioned "Daddy Sorebucks". Various other parody symbols and text replace the normal currency design.
