Just The Tip?

Here are two good examples of lawmakers wasting their time with nonsense.

In New York, Democratic City Councilman Shaun Abreu introduced a bill to coax you into tipping your food delivery person on apps. It would force the apps to set a minimum gratuity of 10% and force users to opt out of tips instead of opt in. Doesn’t New York have bigger problems than this?

In California, lawmakers proposed a bill to end the Clear program in all California airports because they say that “it’s unfair to have people cutting in line just because they pay more.” By that logic, first class should not board first or even exist. And neither should TSA Pre or Global Entry. And neither should HOV or HOT lanes on the freeway.

Talk about perverting a capitalist society! Lawmakers are useless.
