Let's just apply fucking loot box mechanics to everything in our lives.
Pretty much.
The court can just arbitrarily decide that laws like this aren't valid unless they existed in 1790. Apparently that's how democracy works: A council of elders elected by no one and accountable to no one decide what we are allowed to do.
Like with every single thing that humans try to do to help each other, corporations have figured out how to exploit it for themselves.
We feel like tipping helps people because literally handing money to someone SHOULD help them. Except what actually happens is that corporations, with the full support of the government that they own, simply use that social convention to offset the wages that they have to pay their staff.
