    Big difference is she is likely serious. Im not sure how I feel. These are not the highest paid things but I hate encouraging tips over regular reliable pay.

      Lol is this your first American election?

      Cause we’re in the phase where all of the candidates blatantly lie to us and tell what we want to hear in order to secure our votes.

      Remember when Obama was going to codify Roe v Wade? Or when Trump was going to build a wall and make Mexico pay for it?

        those two things are not remotely comparable. obama said he would sign the freedom of choice act which never went to his desk:

        "The bills were referred to the Judiciary Committees of the respective Houses. Neither bill received further action in the 108th Congress. The bills were reintroduced on April 19 2007 in the 110th Congress (H.R. 1964/S. 1173), but, like their predecessors, were referred to committee without further action. "

        making mexico pay for united states infrastructure is something that could never happen unless we went to war with them. Its a blatant lie from the get go.

        As far as taxing tips its about intent. Harris would do it the same as obama would sign the freedom of choice but she is not likely to put all resources to get congress to change the tax code in that way. so she gets a bill she can sign. trump on the other hand is just saying something he thinks people want to hear and would not sign a bill with it in there if it had lets say raised corporate taxes or such.
