Amazing. People who need help getting FOOD are still charged.
We really have a problem giving the needy things for free, huh?

Not exactly, a Jewish mother or conversion equals Jewish, from a certain point of view.
But 1% DNA from a Catholic Mother? Not Jewish.

Well hold on. Jewish Law determines who is Jewish hallukakly (no i cant spell yiddish words)
A Jewish mother, or conversion, is what makes someone religiously Jewish. But plenty of self identified Jews, who live Jewish lives, had a Jewish father, and never formally converted.
Now, Santos can get fucked, he's a liar.
BUT. Who is a Jew? Is not actually a question with a singular answer.

Was it their choice? They were duped.
The customers in this case, were lied to about the product. Saying the company should recall the product, is not saying customers cant buy it a second time, if they so chose, once they have proper information on it.

Every job should be a living wage job.

Lol what. You got an address USPS doesn't deliver to, but food delivery drivers do?
Or you mean you dont see them at your mailbox? Cause thats just a timing issue.

If they're paid fairly, why do they need tips?
Like, do you tip the Postal Worker who delivers your mail? Why not?

Tipping is a shit system.
The employer needs to provide its workers with fair wages.
Do you tip your USPS workers? They deliver in the cold and rain and heat....
Oh, they get reasonable pay from their employer? Huh, so it CAN be done....
Repeat: tipping is a shit system
Edit: to be clear, i operate inside the shit system we have. Im not Mr.Pink from Reservoir Dogs. That said, we SHOULD change it.

Does Adams have a degree in Criminology, Psychology, Sociology or any relevant field to make such a claim?

Every Mayor for the last 40 years has had public disputes with the NYPD
Including Guiliani
I doubt Adams will avoid that; just aint happened yet.

"The right to swing my fist ends where your nose begins"
But apparently, that's not necessarily true, since swinging your fist in the air (at an imaginary target) might get one involuntarily committed..... despite no noses being hit
People are fearful.
I think this solution is bad as its "MOAR COPS!" but in slightly different clothing.
We dont wanna spend money providing housing to people for free--UNLESS that free housing is a prison, jail or mental institute.
If it is true that democracy entails risks, this feels like one we must accept.
Obvi that doesn't mean abandon these folks, but actually provide quality of care: all types, physical, mental and social.
If someone WANTS to duck their own life up--and only swing their fists in the air--why do I have ANY RIGHT to tell them they cant?
We should provide options for people who want them, but forcing someone to something, should be enacted very, very cautiously.
