Homelessness is a USA specific problem? I’ve seen homeless in downtown Tokyo. Incredibly polite homeless, but homeless. As for gun laws, I don’t understand how that has any impact on our tipping policies. I once took a British colleague to a Baseball game here in the states. It was “mini bat night”, where they would hand out mini baseball bats to the attendees as they entered the park. My colleague was horrified - “you couldn’t do that in the UK, people would be hitting each other with them”. My response “you can’t hit each other with mini bats in the US because you don’t know who’s armed”. Which society is more civilized? I’ve never been concerned about assault at a sporting event. Well, maybe a Raiders game, but I wouldn’t include that crowd as a fraction of civilized society.
