Some guy tipped me ten dollars in quarters, and I’m still trying to figure out what kind of person thinks that’s acceptable. I just finished a DoorDash order, and he casually mentions he forgot to tip in the app—which, fine, not ideal, whatever. Then he dramatically pulls out a literal roll of quarters like he’s handing me the crown jewels.
He looks me dead in the eye and says,
“Sorry man, I didn’t tip on the app, this is all I’ve got.”
Yeah, thanks. I love holding a handful of coins like it’s 1998. I don’t use change. I’m not a parking meter. I’m not walking around with rolls of quarters or dumping them into a Coinstar just to get the money I already earned. I took it because arguing over coins isn’t how I planned to spend my day, but that doesn’t make it okay.
Tipping in quarters is peak absurdity. Tip in the app, tip in bills, tip digitally—literally anything that doesn’t involve me schlepping around loose metal. Acting like this is normal? Pure comedy. And yes, no one should ever think a pocketful of coins counts as a tip.

@JamesTate121 This is where your logic goes astray. You think taxing the bottom guy will help the poor. They’ll never see a dime. It will get stolen by democrats just like all the fraud in Minnesota and California. Until they clean up the fraud it’s pointless.

Then lower interest rates, and give incentives to builders to build smaller affordable homes. Every house being built is two stories and over 2200 square feet, a starter home should be around 1200 square feet. Builder build larger because they make more money on a bigger house. Incentivize smaller homes!!!

@BernieSanders You mean you and the democrats need more ways to defraud the federal government. We are on to you cup cake.

@JohnBouras3230 Americans don’t care. We might as will close the boarder and stop all trade. Let’s see how Canada does then. America doesn’t need Canada but Canada damn sure needs America!

Canadians were very clear we want European food standards. We will end the supply management to benefit Europe Canadians won’t buy American dairy or food products. If America wants a deal with Canada they can take it or leave it buy our shit or don’t. They are not that important to the average Canadian only big corporations and they are not loyal to countries anyway. So why should we?

@amelia_tweetz But you can afford traveling all over the world but you can’t afford gas or groceries. STFU!!!
English

This economy is so scary & it’s not getting better.
Rent is HIGH, gas is $4.00, You can only buy 3 days worth of groceries for $100. But yet our wages are the staying the same. That’s not including daily essentials and other bills! I’m making the most money I have and can’t see that for nothing! How are we suppose to LIVE!?

@MadTyAgain Except for Alberta, they know Canada is a bunch of pussies!!!

Lets actually sit down and do the math on Alberta separation, because it seems like nobody else wants to.
Right now, Alberta’s budget is roughly balanced. About $70-75 billion in, same amount out. It’s not perfect, but it works. The second you leave Canada, you don’t just stop sending money to Ottawa. You inherit the whole damn machine they were running on your behalf: borders, military, pensions, Employment Insurance, courts, federal policing, Indigenous obligations, foreign affairs, currency, central banking, all that shit.
That’s not some rounding error. That’s an extra $30 to $60 billion a year in new costs slamming onto a province that was already spending every dollar it made. So now you’re looking at $105-135 billion in annual spending against $75 billion in revenue on a good year. That’s a $30-60 billion hole every single year, and nobody in the separation movement wants to talk about it.
And it gets worse. You’re also picking up $120-150 billion in inherited federal debt. That’s another $4-6 billion a year just in interest payments before you’ve even hired your first border agent or opened a single embassy. Where the hell is that money supposed to come from?
How do you close a gap that big? You’d need brutal spending cuts, a new sales tax, higher income taxes, higher corporate taxes, and you’d better pray oil stays above $80 a barrel. Even then you’re white-knuckling it.
The real kicker is the oil revenue swings like crazy. Your new government costs sure as hell don’t. You can’t call up the military or the pension guys and say “Hey, prices are down this month, take some time off.” The bills keep coming whether WTI cooperates or not. And now there’s no Bank of Canada to bail you out when shit gets sideways. You’re on your own. Good luck with that.
This isn’t about politics or which team you’re on. It’s just arithmetic. You want to be pissed at Ottawa? Fine, there’s plenty of reasons to be fucking pissed. But don’t confuse being pissed off with actually having a plan. Right now the separation crowd is long on anger and real short on math that adds up.
