Then why wouldn’t it help servers, bartenders and valets?

Any tax decrease that I can get helps me. Why wouldn’t it be the same for someone earning tips?

It would help only the ones making lots of money. I don't wish to have the government pick and choose winners in society. That's sick.

95% of people earning under 30k have zero federal tax liability. 50k and less only pay an effective rate of about 1.8%. Really, they can't pay 700 bucks in taxes? That's assuming no kids either. With kids would get a rebate, not pay.

If I have to pay taxes, my businesses have to pay taxes, so should they. The progressive system is already disgusting. Let's not widen the gap of payors anymore.

You can only milk the producers so much....

I want zero taxes. Any help is help. No tax on tips is winning the culture war, which helps win for libertarian/ constitutional movements. If you are going to repeal the16 amendment, it will take decades of small wins
