In fact, one of the best arguments to be found in favor of tipping is that Fidel Castro tried to eradicate it in Cuba.

It’s official: The WSJ editorial page is so stingy/greedy that they begrudge the change they leave for the kid at the sandwich shop. In fact, their editorial page would be almost hilarious if it didn’t embarrass the news side of the operation.
