Vice President Kamala Harris is pledging to end subminimum wages for tipped workers, widening a push to eliminate taxes on tips as she jockeys with Donald Trump ahead of their first debate Tuesday.

In policy proposals posted to her website, Harris called for an increase in the overall minimum wage and for the end of the subminimum wage for tipped workers.

    crikey! here we have a red capped mole rat and aint it a beaut! this little guy is engaged in its favorite pastime - unconfined rage at the “other” followed by some political self-immolation. we’ll leave this one to do its thing and trek on, mate.

    edit: poor attempt at channeling the late steve irwin observing a republican voter in its natural habitat. undercooked and will be retired. :-/

        yeah, 'twas a poor joke - not directed at the original commenter.

        apprently my channeling of the late steve irwin and his wildlife observation of a republican conservative voter in its natural environment needs severe work, is likely critically flawed and will be retired.

        thanks for the wellness check :-)

      OK, I admit I misunderstood that completely.
      I can see how the idea is funny, but as you acknowledge yourself, the execution needs work.
