Your support isn’t helping the people who are serving you if they can’t eat while you are working on legislation.

You fight the system by fighting the system, not punishing people who are even more vulnerable to the cruelty of the system.

Cool story. Good way to have solidarity with workers

You fight the system by fighting the system, not punishing people who are even more vulnerable to the cruelty of the system.

You are only harming workers and are an asshole if you withhold tips.

Yes because me not tipping is going to end the system. Not tipping only benefits me and the owner. The staff is fucked. Only assholes think their individual lack of tipping with change a system. Systematic change requires a system to change.

I don’t get the employer a pass. But I live in a reality of tipped wages and have had a job like that before. I have solidarity with those workers by helping the make a livelihood. Me not tipping only benefits me and the owner. Not the laborer. It is immoral to withhold the money earned

I have solidarity with the people who labor under the system.

Yes I have a choice in that matter. I live in a reality of tipped wages and I have solidarity with the people who labor under it

You suck for not tipping people who are paid in tips.

I haven’t watched international soccer since they awarded Russia and Qatar with the World Cup. Fucking corrupt pieces of shit supporting the worst people.

“Mistakenly deported”???

I really enjoy your snarky tone, but can you explain how any consumption tax regardless of labeling are not regressive when poor people consume a lot more of their income than people with people with higher incomes? Sure you can mitigate this by only taxing x products or offering rebates to poor folk. But it just seems like it is inherent to the system.

It seems to me that progressive income taxes, direct taxes on profits of corporations, wealth taxes, and the like are much better targeted and don’t harm the poorest among us. But I’m from a “ridiculous country” so what do I know?

Sales taxes are regressive. The poorest people pay way more of their income to buy things at stores. Therefore they are getting taxed a lot more than someone who saves money because they have bigger incomes

“Its the antiimperialism of idiots”

According to the tomatoes Wikipedia article, tomatoes were definitely domesticated and eaten by indigenous folk in the americas by 500 BC.

My point is that the people who domesticated the tomato never feared it. Europeans propagated the myth that it was harmful and people who’d been eating it for millennia never took that seriously.
