Trump’s strategy of encouraging supporters to write the message on receipts is seen by Clark as a clever marketing move. It not only promotes the policy but also engages people in spreading the message without any cost to the campaign. This grassroots approach has the potential to raise awareness and generate support for the idea across the country.
In a conservative perspective, the tipping system is viewed as a fair way to reward service workers based on their performance. By exempting tips from taxation, Trump’s proposal aims to benefit those who rely on these earnings, many of whom are not in high income brackets. Clark asserts that this policy could have a positive impact on the livelihoods of servers and bartenders, allowing them to keep more of their hard-earned money.
Overall, Ward Clark supports Trump’s “no tax on tips” plan as a beneficial measure for workers in the service industry. He considers it a practical solution to help individuals keep more of their earnings and believes it aligns with conservative principles of limited government intervention and economic freedom.
