Perhaps you can give me one example of something you buy that would cause you a problem if the government found out. It's the same question whether we live in a democracy or future dictatorship.
I wonder how Europe gets on with gender and cash?

As you all know, many/most European languages embody gender (not sex) in their vocabulary. For example, the Euro in German is neuter in gender.

In Polish, the Zloty is masculine but cash, gotowa, is feminine..

Scope for the woke brigade to get in on the act? And definitely scope for going cashless in Poland.
