    If the EU can force every person on earth to dismiss a cookie popup on every website they visit, surely they can pass some regulation to rein in the expansion of tipping. For examp…

    This is going to expand tipping dramatically. I don't understand how you could have any optimism that tipping will go away after this is passed. Businesses are going to work hard t…

    That's not a tip, it's a bid. Expect a lot more businesses to start operating like this if no tax on tips goes into effect.

    Restricting food to civilians has been a legitimate war tactic forever. It's called a siege. If this is unacceptable to Palestine, they need to return the Israeli hostages. Israel …

    If the rich won't run away, then Spain and Brazil don't need global action. They could just jack up taxes on the rich in their own countries. And since you've now pinky sworn that …

    It's a monstrous disincentive to increased productivity. If you're a smart, ambitious person who wants to work hard and advance your lot in life, are you really going to stay in Sp…

    Your standard for dull is too high. Most of the world does not create anything. The mere fact that you're creating something, even if it is an amateurish model airplane, is already…

    What the governor of California believes does not matter when federal agents are being attacked. The President has a responsibility to protect his agents. If California is not doin…

    Democrats, socialists, and communists, yes. It sure isn't Republicans rioting because their candidate is enacting one of the cornerstones of his platform.

    If 500 people can't stop 10 from causing violence, then those 500 never believed in peace to begin with.

    How terrible. Identity groups should never be flattened. We must always remember that we're different from each other.

    They are a foreign company. They have no due process rights. We could hit their data center with a cruise missile tomorrow and it would be perfectly legal.

    Harvard is a systematically racist institution. They even went to the Supreme Court to fight for the right to discriminate against white and Asian students. Republicans and Trump-v…

    There is a 99% chance of this getting overturned. Harvard will sue, lose in court, and then give DHS everything they want at which point they'll get their visas back. They just wan…
