[–] reverendsteveii@lemm.ee 0 points 3 years ago (1 child) it promotes worker tax evasion this is the only argument I'll hear in favor of tipping. People should cheat on their taxes until they pay as little as the wealthy. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] bonnetbee@lemmy.world 16 points 3 years ago (1 child) I don't agree. Just tax the rich properly. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] 5am5ep1ol@lemmy.film 5 points 3 years ago I mean, I get where you’re coming from. But modern US does not spend our tax money justly or wisely. Infrastructure crumbling, social services abysmal, arts funding abysmal…we are constantly taking our great revenue and mishandling it while people across the country suffer. Our system works for the rich, while running on money from the poor. The entire system is broken, taxing the rich will not solve the problem. permalink fedilink source parent
