Increase the minimum wage, end sub-minimum wages for tipped workers and people with disabilities, establish paid family and medical leave, and eliminate taxes on tips for service and hospitality workers


So she wants to pay every tipped worker normal minimum wage (which they're already getting in many cities), increase that wage, and eliminate taxes on tips. How about increase hourly wages for wait staff etc and ban tipping all together or put up roadblocks for tipping?

Why is it just about every other country gets this right except the US. 90 percent of any other country pays a living wage to servers and tips aren't expected. So she proposed that said servers get paid a living wage and is encourage tipping culture still?

I don’t really see your problem with this exactly, she wants to set up a system for minimum wage workers to make more money….You don’t have to tip if you don’t want to, you always had that right…

LOL you mentioned me, son. At least twice without me replying.

10 posts about me.

1 about Harris' policies where you clearly copied and pasted and didn't read a damn thing.

This is a sad day for dems. You celebrate a presidential candidate who finally after almost 2 months publishes the bare minimum on her website and you goofs act as if she cured Cordyceps. And you were cheerleading her endorsement by War Criminal Cheney.

Even the dems of 2000 would look down on you.

You have nothing. Literally nothing. You're a fraud.

there was clearly more than that, I just pasted the important points. Don’t project your laziness on to me, go grab another tweet to make a statement for yourself.

Blah blah blah, everyone but me is a fraud, blah blah blah
Spends weeks whining non fucking stop about Harris not having policies on her website, and then look hey now she does... time to just move on from pretending you ever gave a shit about that in the first place lmao

It's easy to see why Elon "Russian tool" Musk is fighting Harris Presidency.

 

[Fox by the Sea]

Foreign policy are kinda bland and basically just the current biden policies.

 

[Stokanator]

Do you believe the policy priorities outlined by the Harris campaign are areas she would make concrete, measurable progress on if elected president? The approach taken here appears to be identifying the safest policy positions with the highest percentage of public support, rather than tackling more controversial topics like border security.

 

[PEB]

Where are the policies that lift up Foundational Black Americans? Did she have to sell out to the wh*te supremacist base and screw over the Black man again? Tsk tsk
