575 | 1 | Victim of blind justice or white racisam in south caroilna or us justice?: | Your client? Give me a break man...you are some crack pot conspiracy theorist...first there is no consistent question within your rant of improperly formed English (incomplete) sentences. Second, the racism charges in your "question" make it highly suspect.
Honestly, I am glad that your "client" is not allowed in the US, because if he "hired" you, he should not be here. | 1 | 1 | 1 | 1 | 1 | 0 | 1 | 1 | 0 | 1 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | TRAIN |
576 | 1 | Question about pleading "temporary insanity".?: | If the male were to sue the female for damages, that is a civil action. The defense of temporary insanity is used in criminal proceedings. It generally would not apply to a civil proceeding. However, the defense of temporary insanity is (contrary to what you see on television and the movies) extremely rare. Some states do not allow it at all. Others, just like the "permanent" insanity defense, restrict it considerably.
Mental anguish is a tort. I think it unlikely under the circumstances that a jury would give her much for a mental anguish claim. The fact that its a marriage that is obviously in trouble, and he would be able to produce his own evidence, would problably not make the case a viable case, IMHO.
The laws governing the above vary greatly from state to state. For the most accurate information, you should consult an attorney who is licensed in your state. If you need a referral, contact your local or state bar association. | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | TRAIN |
578 | 1 | Class action suit against water companies?: | There are literally tens of thousands of water companies in the US.
They are generally regulated by various federal and state agencies. If they comply with those regulations, there is no basis for a suit, class action or otherwise.
In order to prevail, you would have to prove negligence.
If you don't like tap water, drill your own well, install your own filtration system or buy bottled water. But, you will not prevail if you attempt to sue a water company unless you prove they are negligent. | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | TRAIN |
580 | 1 | Is the adversarial system ethical?: | The adverserial legal system is governed by rules of conduct and engagement imposed on both parties. In that sense it is ethical as it provides a structure for "fair play". However, a lawyer's job is to win a case hor his/her client. Taking advantage of loopholes in the law is one way to beat the otherside. In some cases, this may not be ethical. Nevertheless, the legal process that we have provides the best way to redress a wrong since a party that feels its claim was not handled well/fairly within the scope of the law, can in some cases seek further action through the appelate courts. This is as good as it gets folks! The alternative would be Hamurarbbi's Sheria/Law, where justice is meted out in the form of chopping off body parts. | 1 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 1 | 1 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | TRAIN |
581 | 1 | Ok is this right for the workplace and what can we do?: | Firstly does your bf own the company or is he a worker?
Secondly unions are legal and allowed to sign up members. However this sounds like it goes a little far, unless your bf has done something like cross a picket line , then he better know he's not going to be liked or respected and that's why he's being called a rat and a scab. As for the other man is he really an illegal allien? Then INS could come in and send him back .
You know unionism only grows when the employees sense that management is not dealing with them fairly and respecing the work they do. When people do not feel valued or respected or acknowledged for their contributions then they become angry and push back in the only way they know how as a group.
Unions are not all demons nor is management always the enemy however if that's how management and union posture themselves then there won't be any kind of labour peace. | 1 | 1 | 1 | 1 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 1 | 0 | 1 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | TRAIN |
582 | 2 | Cmv: grades are an accurate reflection of intelligence: | Certainly, you can be very clever and have terrible grades, but at the same time it is not smart to do poorly in school, thus limiting your opportunity.
I almost get angry when I hear someone say this. Granted this is a blanket statement, and doesn't include outside circumstance such as extreme poverty or a disease, but I feel that 90% of the time laziness is to blame.
I've heard the "I know stupid people with good grades" argument and I don't understand that. Even mechanically applied knowledge is still knowledge

583 | 2 | Cmv:i don't believe in morality: | I've slowly been losing belief in morality. I tend to find the whole thing odd.
There's this weird quality that lies outside of the physical realm and cannot be justified by it (because you can't easily leap from something existing to something being moral without something being taken as axiomatic) and yet we are bound by it with threads made up of this also strange material?
All moral systems seem to start from an assumption that X is good (and we therefore must do X), and I can't seem to find any reason to believe that I should make that jump. *Why* should I believe in some magical moral rule when the world seems so clearly explicable without it? *Why* should I believe that it's anything but a bunch of illusions created by mammals that need incentives for prosocial behavior? If I place a world with moral meaning next to one without the latter seems far simpler with less baggage.

584 | 2 | Cmv:every person on the planet should have the right to 4 things without charge: a home, food, healthcare, and education.: | 1) A Home
No one should be homeless in this world. Everyone deserves to have a place to call home, no one should be living on the street.
2) Food
Everyone needs food to be able to live. No reason why people should be starving.
3) Healthcare
EVERYONE should receive equal healthcare regardless of their insurance and money situation. No one should be able to buy better healthcare.
4) Education
Everyone should be entitled to getting some sort of education. Im not saying put everyone into college, im just saying that if someone wants to better themselves with education, be it getting a basic high school education, a college degree, or some sort of trade, it should be available.
This is where it gets unpopular.
The government should pay for it.
If we had a tax system that taxed the rich more and the poor less there would be money for programs that, feed, house, educate, and care for every single person. | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | TRAIN |

The questions are posed in such a way to elicit a 'dirty' response from the contestants.
And when they do answer accordingly, Steve makes a shocked face to the camera as if that reply was so unbelievable. Every. Fucking. Time.
I've noticed he has been getting lots of love on Reddit lately and I am surprised by this.

586 | 2 | Cmv: higher insurance rates for young men is sexist.: | Yes, I understand the fact that there are studies showing how young men can be more reckless than women, but that shouldn't be a good enough reason to treat men any differently than women.
For example, "Whites, who make up 78 percent of the U.S. population, accounted for 35 percent of the state prison population. Blacks, who make up 13 percent of the U.S. population, were 38 percent of the state prison population. Hispanics, who make up 17 percent of the U.S. population, were 21 percent of the state prison population." Does this mean Blacks or Hispanics should be treated differently just because there are statistically more of them in prison? No. This, I feel, is a good analogy as to why men should be getting the same insurance rates as women.
I'm not a 'masculinist', but It just strikes me as unfair. I would love to hear some other opinions! Thank you for taking the time to read :]

588 | 2 | Cmv: i believe that not tipping on principle is a cop out and illogical.: | After finishing Reservoir Dogs for the first time last night, I have noticed how much of a bullshit move this is. I have heard the usual reasoning and still find no logic in it. They are doing us a service that does not have to be provided to us. They work hard and they usually only get paid enough that it pays for the state and federal taxes applied to the wages. To not tip our servers is a like a slap in the face to them. They rate their performance on how big or small their tips are. Be brutal, kind, or what you want. Just be logical | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | TRAIN |
589 | 2 | Cmv: the government should stop recognizing all marriages.: | I really see no benefits in governmen recognition of marriages.
First, the benefits: no more fights about what marriage is. If you want to get married by your church - you still can. If you want to marry your homosexual partner in a civil ceremony - you can. Government does not care. Instant equality.
Second, this would cut down on bureaucracy. No marriage - no messy divorces. Instant efficiency.
Now to address some anticipated counter points:
The inheritance/hospital visitation issues can be handled though contracts (government can even make it much easier to get/sign those forms.) If you could take time to sign up for the marriage licence, you can just as easily sign some contract papers.
As for the tax benefits: why should married people get tax deductions? Sounds pretty unfair to me. If we, as a society want to encourage child rearing - we can do so directly by giving tax breaks to people who have and rare children, not indirectly through marriage.

591 | 2 | Cmv: the palestinians have started a war of propaganda against israel by holding their own citizens hostage in public spaces that they have turned into military strongholds.: | Every time I see the news, whether it be CNN, Fox, or BBC, I see in the headlines "ISRAEL BOMBS GAZA; WONT STOP DESPITE KILLING CIVILIANS." I see the number of casualties to both sides and things just don't add up. I think it is possible that the Palestinians are taking up military strongholds in public compounds such as schools and hospitals, taking hostages (which could help account for the number of civilian casualties), and minimizing their military casualties by allowing the Israelis to destroy these compounds while under the impression that there are more soldiers there. What the world sees is the Israelis bombing the shit out of a bunch of helpless civilians, resulting in genocide. The end result is propaganda against a UN affiliated nation that is "mercilessly committing genocide against a smaller, helpless nation" despite all of the tension between these two nations that led up to this. | 1 | 1 | 1 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | TRAIN |

I'm only 23 and this subject angers me greatly
I chose the age of 30 because I believe the age gap between 30 and 17 (or younger) is too big
I feel like this should be only done for sexual crimes because I don't think anybody could possibly get turned on by murder I could be wrong though.

I understand that is was a reaction to the perception that social liberalism failed after the 60s ended. However, I feel as though there is overwhelming evidence that neoliberalist ideals create multinational monopolies that exploit the resources of developing nations, creates serious economic inequality, erodes social good, and continues to perpetuate an unstable boom-bust cycle in which only the wealthy have influence. I'm genuinely curious if there are any real benefits to this kind policy? or does it simply concentrate wealth? | 1 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 1 | 0 | 1 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | TRAIN |

Lets review all of his failures:
1. Asleep at the wheel/ignoring all the warnings for 9/11
2. Completely false/made up pretext for the war in Iraq (WMDs), completely destabilizing the region (as we are seeing now) for decades.
3. After starting two wars in the middle east, engaged in doomed attempt at nation building/bringing democracy in order to enrich the military industrial complex and oil buddies.
4. Asleep at the wheel during the housing/finance bust, presiding over the worst recession since the great depression.
5. Cut taxes for the rich bringing us the biggest deficit and debt in history, resulting in MASSIVE spending cuts on social services during the great recession.
And probably many more I'm leaving out, but I think this is enough to get this conversation started. | 1 | 1 | 0 | 1 | 1 | 0 | 1 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | TRAIN |
599 | 2 | Cmv: i think football in the island of ireland should be called soccer.: | In the island of Ireland there is football; where you kick the ball with your feet and is seen all over the world e.g. FIFA World Cup but there is also Gaelic football.
In America there is soccer and football [NFL]. I believe football in America is called football despite being egg shaped is because it is the associated sport of that name in that country, while soccer is the foreign sport.
Based of the above; in Ireland the NFL is Gaelic Football as it is played all across the island; Ireland and Northern Ireland [two separate counties]. Soccer is the foreign sport, so why is different?
Could it be because of the relationship between the UK and Ireland or maybe their political standings? Either way, depending on what side you are on and who you might be speaking to, football can mean two different things. Football should be the national football of a country, soccer should be the foreign sport. Change my view | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | TRAIN |

602 | 2 | Cmv: soccer would be much better without offsides.: | Basically, I think doing away with offsides in soccer would make the game much more exciting. If the teams were both forced to spread across the entire field, everyone has more space, which allows for much more passing, shooting, and generally exciting offensives. I think this would allow for games to be much more higher scoring, therefore making it more exciting and more pleasing for the fans. Hardly any games would end in draws, which in my opinion is the most frustrating thing in any sport. Watching an entire 90 minutes only for neither team to win would almost be ended, or at least greatly reduced. | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | TRAIN |
603 | 2 | Cmv: aliens have never visited earth.: | Let me start by saying I was really into the whole UFO topic for several years. After extensively following pretty much every new UFO sighting or alien conspiracy I could find I gradually went from being a firm believer to feeling like it's very likely that all alien/ UFO accounts can be explained by hoaxes or unreliable eyewitness testimony.
So many of the most credible seeming sightings end up being debunked as hoaxes. Similarly, so many credible sources of eye-witness testimony, such as the various military personnel in the disclosure project, end up revealing themselves to be pursuing money and or simply lying about their expertise such as Bob Lazar(claimed to work at Area 51).
I would love for it to be true that aliens have been visiting earth and its all a big coverup but I can't think of a single credible example that hasn't been thoroughly discredited. CMV. | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | TRAIN |
604 | 2 | Cmv: i believe that the phrase "be a man" is at best outdated and at worst sexist.: | In my opinion, all it serves to do is remind men to fulfil the traditional gender roles. To "be a man" you have to provide for your family, be responsible and protect your family. It's the male equivalent of "be more ladylike".
All it accomplishes is:
* Make non-traditionally masculine men feel like shit
* Reaffirm that men are the leaders and protectors of society
It implies that these particular values are men-only, and that women aren't supposed to have those values (if they do, they're told to 'act like a lady'). And god forbid that men have some values that women are 'supposed' to have.
Why not have a gender neutral phrase? "Be a better person"? | 1 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 1 | 1 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | TRAIN |
606 | 2 | Cmv: nintendo should use daisy in a mario platformer: | I'll admit it. I'm a fan of Daisy. I know, I know, her voice is irritating, sure. That's your opinion. However, Super Mario Land was the first Mario game I ever beat, and so I have an affinity for her. Beyond that, though, it just makes sense to reuse her at least once. She's a familiar face to anyone who's ever played Mario Kart since the Gamecube. Moreover, now that Nintendo has a habit of sending Mario to places outside of the Mushroom Kingdom, a la Galaxy or 3D World, it would make perfect sense to bring him back to Sarassaland. It lets Peach be a playable character, it justifies her continued presence in spinoffs, and it could make the Mario universe more cohesive.

607 | 2 | Cmv: i believe bitcoin will take over the world: | All my life I've been fascinated by economics and money.

As a consequence of this, I belief market forces will push direct more and more resources to Bitcoin (from the inferior monies in the market place) until Bitcoin consumes all of their value and becomes a monopolistic global currency.

It has become an expectation that I achieve Firsts, and therefore when I do score highly on work I receive replies such as "of course" or "is that it?" jokingly from my peers.

610 | 2 | Cmv: star wars episodes i iii are better than iv vi: | Just completed a marathon of the series, and for my money, the first three were just more enjoyable.
The story was quite rich; the rise of Palpatine, the clones, Amidala, Anakin, the role of the Jedi... Each arc wasn't just a progression of linear events building up to Episode IV.
There were some amazing set pieces too; Darth Maul against Obi Wan and Qui Gon, Anakin vs Obi Wan, Jango Fett.
Next to the new ones, the old episodes seem slow, linear a little dumb.
I accept there are plenty of faults with the first three episodes (I'm looking at you, Jar Jar). I also accept that much of what we accept now as standard fare for sci-fi is off the back of Star Wars, but my argument is simply that the first three episodes (in episodic order) more enjoyable and engaging than the latter three. | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | TRAIN |

617 | 2 | Should parents be allowed to reprimand their children via spanking/smacking? stance: yes.: | Yes, I do believe so. Within in reason, of course. In the earlier stages of life, physical consequence is more receptive to children than verbal scolding. I do not believe that you can label a bad parent if they occasionally hit their children. This method of discipline has been apart of parental doctrine since the beginning of man. It is both effective and, if administered properly, harmless to the child. The argument that the societal acceptance of child spanking condones or escalates child abuse is unsubstantiated. Most cases of child abuse are fueled by unrelated issues involving the parent (ie: alcoholism), not the failure of the parent to exact the correct degree of spankage. Vilifying the proper use of child-spanking condemns good parenting. | 1 | 1 | 0 | 1 | 1 | 0 | 1 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | TRAIN |

Isn't it bad enough that the year supposedly starts in the middle of winter, so that each year gets TWO winters? Why would we want to split up our weekend so that it's only one day long on each end? A work-week is five days, then two days of play; lather, rinse, and repeat. Or take the "week" off and go skiing, but that's neither here nor there.
I prefer calendars that start with Sunday 'cause it's prettier (symmetry!), but window-dressing aside, the week starts on Monday. | 1 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 1 | 1 | 1 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | TRAIN |

business name: waffle house. city: guadalupe. categories: waffles, breakfast & brunch, diners, restaurants, american (traditional): | From the moment I walked in, there was already something wrong with my experience. No one greeted us, so me and my friends (group of 5) decided to find a seat on our own. Once I sat down the cook told us they could not serve us because they had no plates. Once we didn't leave after she stated that, she proceeded to make a smart remark to convince us to leave. After she said that, we all left and took our business elsewhere. I don't know why this place is 24 hours if they're not able to function. We went while there was one other customer there! This place was not even busy, if it was busy I would understand why they had no plates. But if they had one other customer in the building, I don't understand why they had no plates. Horrible experience and would never go again. | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | TRAIN |

business name: new way gourmet. city: pittsburgh. categories: mediterranean, sandwiches, delis, restaurants, pizza: | I can't sing new way's praises enough. I live a hop, skip and a jump away from this gem and checked it out for the first time after some Arsenal workers recommended it on a night they didn't have a food truck. The owner is super friendly, makes everything from scratch and gives you substantial portions at an extremely low price. The place is never too crowded so he is always able to whip up your delicious meal in no time whilst you window gaze at the busy strip of Penn Avenue outside. The tuscan chicken sandwich was awesome as well as the hot italian sausage sandwich when it is on special. You really can't go wrong with anything you get there, though.

business name: the chuck wagon restaurant. city: las vegas. categories: restaurants, american (traditional): | We've gone 2x now and won't be going back again. The first time, it was decent but the steaks were way overcooked. We decided we'd gove them another try and order our steaks rare. The second time, it was a 20 min wait to be seated, another 15 for the food, and when we got it, the steaks were way overcooked again, even though we ordered it rare. The veggies were soggy, the lobster was rubbery. My son, who eats anything you put in front of him, took one bite of his grilled cheese and refused to touch it again. Then we go up front to pay, it takes another 7 mins for someone to come ring us up. She asks how it was and we told her it was awful, she said "sorry, $34.24" we should've just walked out, I wouldn't have felt guilty, it was disgusting. | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | TRAIN |

704 | 1 | Mother took child out of state without consent?: | Since he knew about it, did not petition the court at that time, let alot of time go past, the court will view this most likely as allowing it.
But he will have to petition the court to find her in contempt, and order her to return to the state.
alot better chance had it done it prior to her moving, or as soon as she moved. | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | TRAIN |
706 | 1 | Why do american's think they should decide if women are allowed to have n abortion?: | Americans as a whole do not think this way. There is much controversy in our country about this issue. It is currently legal in most (I believe) states to have an abortion, but conservative religious zealots are always trying to change the law. Obviously, I am pro-women's rights (not pro-abortion and not pro-life, but believe that since it's the woman's responsibility it ultimately needs to be her choice.) | 1 | 1 | 1 | 0 | 1 | 0 | 1 | 1 | 0 | 1 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | TRAIN |
710 | 1 | Do you need a fence around a 3.5 ft swimming pool in ohio?: | I believe that you have to put a fence around any pool in Ohio. Lets put it this way- if you dont put a fence around your pool, and a little child sneaks in and drowns- you would be completely liable, and would likely lose your house, your car, and have your wages garnished for years while you worked to pay off the liability lawsuit. To me, the risk isnt worth the reward, I would install it no matter what the law is (but yes, I think every pool in Ohio requires one). Also, if you dont have a fence around it, you might have problems with your homeowners insurance over the liability issue as well. | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | TRAIN |
711 | 1 | Is it illegal to exclude men and white people from employement based on their sex and/or race.?: | This is a great question! I actually just learned all about discrimination in the workplace, and covered this. It's funny, because the law states that you cannot discriminate due to sex, color, or age. However, white men are the only group that is not covered in a protected class. So, technically, yes it is illegal to exclude them, but they are not protected! Seems kinda funny, but how often in America do they need protection...? | 1 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 1 | 1 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | TRAIN |
716 | 1 | If u s can not make peace in other countries?: | how do you think we got our freedom by standing back.
in the public eyes iraq does not deserve freedom like ours. we need keep fighting the terrorist for the people OF THE WORLD from the terrorist who rule it. and we are not dictator we are freedom fighters who fight for FREEDOM, JUSTICE AND LIBERTY. unfortunitly people lost sight of it and voted wrong yesterday.
and morally we are now also headed in the wrong direction. people need to be responible for their action and not blame it on science or the society.
finally for the budget there goes the state and national level budget and economy and our taxes. people what things to be in place for a better country and community. but who do you think we pay for it in the long run. we do with our taxes, not with the so called federal and state money people think we have.
country is in a mess thanks to the ungrateful american public who forget how our free | 1 | 1 | 1 | 1 | 1 | 0 | 1 | 1 | 1 | 0 | 1 | 1 | 1 | 0 | TRAIN |
717 | 1 | What current laws do you feel are morally wrong. whould u be justified by breaking these laws? why?: | Law is an obligation of the society to which a person has to abide. Any law that violates your rights is morally wrong. However, your right should not hinder/hurt other people's rights/sentiments. Breaking a law is dangerous when you are prone to get caught.. however, people tend to bend laws and break laws.. to which the penalty is not severe.. say, like speeding, not wearing seat belts, etc. Any law would be right if it doesnt invade the realms of Human rights and religious beliefs of a person. If you are unhappy with any law, you can fight it in the court of justice or ask your legislature to change/modify. However thats a very tiring and exhaustive process. | 1 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 1 | 1 | 1 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | TRAIN |
718 | 1 | Do you think fireworks should be illegal (uk) ?: | i totally agree with you for the same reasons. my animals suffer every year as they seem to go off weeks before now. even the main displays are starting earlier.
the first big display i know of was a few weeks ago in the middle of October! what happened to November 5th! if it was one night only it wouldn't be so bad.
i cant sedate my animals because it goes on for weeks. they are terrified!
even though the sale of fireworks is illegal to kids, they still get them just as they do cigarettes and alcohol.
they are dangerous and just another tool for those intent to be a menace to the public.
it should be illegal to sell them in shops. organised displays should be set for the one night only, so us animal lovers can help our pets by sedation.
you are so right on this subject x | 1 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 1 | 0 | 1 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | TRAIN |
719 | 1 | Is humanity in the final steps of becoming into slavery?: | Thanks for bringing up this important issue.
Most of the things you mentioned have beneficial uses. The danger if they are misused. I think the Bush administration has demonstrated how our rights can be undermined. They are talking of retaining the prisoners in Cuba for the rest of their lives, without charges or benefit of legal defense.
The only way to protect our rights is to participate in the process of government. I hope anyone who reads this is ready to defend liberty with their vote on the 7th. | 1 | 1 | 0 | 1 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 1 | 0 | 1 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | TRAIN |
722 | 1 | Do you think servers should be paid more than $2.13 and hour?: | I've never been a server or waitress but, I feel that regardless of how much in tips they make, they should get minimum wage. They work just as hard as anyone else. As for the tips, they have to earn them. Just think of a slow night and little or no tips...she walks away with what, 20 bucks for working 8 hours on her feet. I think there should be a change in this, everyone should get nothing less than minimum wage regardless of their occupation. | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | TRAIN |
