Tah. Hadn't seen that before.

The problem is that people voted for them.
If you ever have a fair and free election again within your lifetime, how do you propose to overcome this demented voting behaviour?
While contemplating that, how do you propose rebuilding your country that has been damaged in the collateral and insidious manner by policy decrees made by an orange man in a red hat?
From where I'm sitting on the other side of the planet, you have your work cut out for you.

This discussion around what to tip hides an employment system that values employees to the point of underpayment and poor working conditions.
Perhaps you should instead frequent establishments where tipping is not expected because the employees are paid a proper wage.
That way, you don't have to argue about tipping your bartender too much, or not enough, instead you can focus on drinking a superbly crafted concoction of your choice.
I'll also note that tipping is not universal.
I think as a society we need to go through this, watching companies fail and shareholders losing their shit before the perpetrators of Assumed Intelligence end up in court.
I have mixed feelings about the employees who are caught up in this .. let's call it what it is .. scam.
It's easy to say .. you lost your job because your boss is an arsehole, but how much influence did each individual really have in the overall process?
I've been looking for the next paid challenge for five years .. well before this AI scam was perpetrated on the world. Despite having 40+ years industry experience and an aging population, my own age appears to be a barrier for the HR teams relying on the same tools that is causing them to lose their jobs.
As I said, I think this needs to blow up before it gets better, hopefully before I'm too old to do meaningful work.
It's an insult with a poor attempt at pretending that it's not.
Recommendation: Find a better friend.
Every time someone posts a wall of text as an image, or a meme with poor contrast text, or some random image that can only be interpreted on a 4k screen, rather than a mobile phone.
It's happening in Australia too. The headline in this article needs some work.
I propose:
"Soon to be disbarred King's Council used Assumed Intelligence instead of Actual Intelligence to argue a murder case"
