Why are you being so unpleasant?
I’m curious where you live that dining out is so cheap and welfare pays so much.
You don't have to be curious. Just about everywhere there is civilization, you can eat at a restaurant for under THIRTY-FOUR FUCKING DOLLARS. The fact this needs to be spelled out to you should be a wake up call to anyone who isn't living in your privileged bubble.
A better question would be, where are you living where you can't find a meal for under that price? I'd love to know so we can do some internet searching and see if you're telling the truth.
Original comment was a bit hyperbolic.
More realistic number for anything that requires 20% tipping, 20usd in any tier 1 and tier 2 us cities. That's like very basic one dish, nothing else.
Again, you're wrong.
What cities are you talking about? I'll show you restaurants that are cheaper than what you say.
Also, tipping is a scam and every time you do it you keep it going on for longer.
