American English and British English can be two very different beasties. We Yanks seem to be more fluid with our grammar rules and slang, at least in my experience. Coming from a European family, but born and raised in the US, I developed a very proper way of speaking, with correct diction and enunciation so I don’t…

Bizarrely, some in France (and maybe other places too) also like to say American instead of English for the language. For example, I found an American book translated into French and on the cover it said “traduit de l’Américain par...” (“Translated from American by...) Anyone know how this came about?

I’m wondering where the argument for raising minimum wages will also increase the cost of living (COL) in an area as many other costs will rise with it. It is simple economics, even if it takes a little time to see that result.

I do not believe any person should be working full time at a fast food restaurant. You can’t leave poverty by trying to force a career out of a job meant for part-time employees.

No fast food employee deserves more than $10 an hour.

Because you can potentially make way more than the much smaller tip seems to be the obvious answer here.
