The amount that I tip depends on several things: How much work did the server do, how well did they do it, and how pleasant they are. Price of the meal is irrelevant. Staff in a low priced bistro may work just as hard as staff in a high priced one. And if they're really good I give them several restaurants to apply to where they'll make more money.

@RepMcGovern This is a hollow argument. You had ample opportunity to fix roads and bridges before the Iran and you didn't do it.

@WallStreetApes 40 years ago everything else broke even and the revenue from the fries was the company's profit. Maybe that's still the case.

Americans brings up a very interesting point
She’s at McDonald’s and shows the menu
“Why is nobody talking about the fact that a McDonald's cheeseburger is cheaper than their fries? The cheeseburger is $3.89, but a small order of fries is $4.09”
“So a with beef, cheese, bread, pickles, onions, ketchup, and mustard costs less than a potato that's been cut up and fried. How does this make any sense? At this point, I'm starting to really question what's really in McDonald's meat”

@VigilantFox Sounds like Newsom thinks it would be OK for Putin or Xi or Ben Netanyahu to vote in American elections as long as they are registered and in California they probably could register.

MASK OFF: Gavin Newsom admits gerrymandering is a response to the SAVE ACT (Requiring Photo ID to vote, preventing non-citizens from voting).
“What's the Save act all about? It's not about voter ID. It's about who gets to vote. It's about voter registration.
This guy is not screwing around. And nor can we. We have got to fight fire with fire. I wish it weren't the case.
The idea that we were advocating for gerrymandering, the fact that we were advocating for literally politicizing and choosing voters. Shows you how precious again, and profound and consequential this moment is in our republic.”
There are nearly 200 nations, over 175 have photo ID required to vote. The US is the only ‘developed nation’ without the requirement to vote, and Gavin Newsom wants to keep it that way.

You wouldn't know it based on what you see on this site, but there is actually a lane for people who are skeptical of military intervention and regime change wars but also aren't weeping for the Iranian regime and actively rooting for America to fail. Not only does the lane exist in real life but it's where like 90 percent of real people live.

During pregnancy, a small number of fetal cells naturally cross the placenta and enter the mother’s bloodstream. This process, known as fetal microchimerism, means that tiny clusters of the child’s cells can take up residence in the mother’s body and remain there for decades after birth. What makes this phenomenon remarkable is that many of these fetal cells behave like stem cells. They are able to migrate through the body, settle in different tissues, and in some case respond to injury.
Research over the past two decades has found fetal cells embedded in healing heart tissue, in regenerating skin, in the liver after injury, and in other organs where repair is taking place. Some of these cells appear capable of transforming into the types of cells needed for healing, such as heart muscle cells, liver cells, or immune cells. Others may contribute indirectly, by releasing molecules that support tissue repair and reduce inflammation.
Their influence isn’t always fully predictable, yet their presence in healing tissues is consistently observed.

#Iran Let us debunk some myths before social media starts to go crazy:
1) Iran has never been able to close the Strait of Hormuz. Furthermore, almost 80% of the traffic goes to China, Iran's largest partner. It would shoot itself in the foot.
