The COC is an important post. I don’t know what our currency has to do with gender equity — but I bet the soon to be debuted (I bet) Fed coins could have a lot to do with gender equity. You could make dollars worth more than a dollar to women and less than a dollar to men, if indeed you still have men and women. Not sure how you’d work that out. More work for law professors I guess.
