    How about we raise the minimum wage instead?

    Tipping is culturally enforced abdication of responsibilities toward workers.

            She doesn’t really have an official policy yet. Not surprising given the number of issues she needs positions on and how quickly this campaign needed to spin up. She basically went straight into campaign events. Presumably she’ll have a platform by the DNC

            I’ve read that she actually brought it up in this very rally at Las Vegas - alongside the tax-free tips. I haven’t seen this rally though so can’t substantiate. She’s talked about raising the minimum wage to $15 before however[1] and I swear I’ve heard her mentioning making the minimum wage a livable wage in either one or her rallies or her speech to the UAW.

      Outlawing tips? Changing the tipping culture overnight? Updating the tax code seems easier/faster.

        Outlawing tips?

        I said nothing of the sort

        Changing the tipping culture overnight?

        Neither did I say this.

        Updating the tax code seems easier/faster.

        Sounds like an excellent conversation for you to have with whomever said those things. Which, let me remind you, is not me.
