If you have to resort to debating semantics, then you probably don’t have much of an argumentative leg to stand on, eh?

I don’t think you’re quite getting it.

i’n not a centrist. not even close. I’m just not a fucking moron, and I understand the realities of the 2-party system.

You try finding golf shirts that can fit over those hams

thanks for supporting Republicans, dingus

I don’t get it - are you genuinely this clueless or are you being obtuse?

They are tacking it on as a line item because it hasn’t been baked into the price of services there ever before (unlike basically everywhere else you spend your money), and people will quite literally stop going to the establishment if the prices go up.

you pay for the employee’s benefits at every single place you do business. Somehow, restaurants doing it makes them horrible.

Anyone saying that this is a direct result of Pelosi’s actions is being a bit reactionary, I agree.

so employee benefits are ridiculous?

why are you so toxic

you are a very typical mmo player

it’s still the server’s money, though

smoked trout is better than lox

I don’t think you quite know how the system works when it comes to how servers are paid.

dude i was just trolling you the whole time and you took the bait god lol k

You’re wrong. As long as tips + wages work out to minimum wage or greater, it is completely legal for a restaurant to pay someone less than minimum wage.

customers pay for employee benefits at every single business in the world in which there are benefits offered and products/services sold.

so you were just being argumentative then? I thought so. No one could be so stupid as to think that there’s no difference between tipped restaurant work and shifted, hourly work.
