    I think you very much underestimate what tipped workers make in general compared to salaried jobs requiring the same level of qualification.

    Anyway, I thought you were in favor of people not paying taxes on tips… Gotta make up your mind there buddy, you should be happy they’re sticking it to the man and refusing to pay taxes on what is rightfully their money, right? You can’t decide that just because they make more tip than most then it doesn’t apply to them, same rules for everyone or no rules at all!

      You’re hell-bent on trying to change what I’ve said and you can quit that shit already…

      • first and foremost - get rid of tips
      • second - pay a living wage
      • raise the bottom tax bracket substantially
      • fine the fuck out of tax cheats
      • get rid of the urban legend that a significant number of folks getting tipped are getting rich on it

        But then when people are doing exactly that now you don’t approve because it’s people who actually make more than average… Funny right?

          You are really, really bad at reading comprehension and only slightly good at stirring the shit. I have consistently said we should increase the size of the lowest tax bracket so that everyone low pay gets to pay lower taxes.

          Are you going to continue to try to make hay out of someone having a guaranteed pay of $2/hr? What is your end-game here?

            Just quoting you buddy!

            No matter what you’re guaranteed pay is, if your get more earnings added to that you pay taxes on it like anyone else, if you’re not happy with the total you get then look for another job, when employers are unable to find labour they’ll have to increase the basic salary.

            Hell, by your logic car salesmen should only pay taxes on their guaranteed salary, right? What they get from selling a car isn’t guaranteed so why should they pay taxes on that?

                You just have to start thinking before typing, you’re the one who couldn’t answer the question and when you finally did you put your foot in your mouth, that’s not my fault 🤷
