I don't understand people going on an obviously one sided political rant and then going "don't hit me I vote for the good guys trust me !", it's not subtle.
> So under the Government’s approach, members of the public would be forced to guess whether they could even offer thank-you gift cards, their garbage collectors, professors, or school board members, for example.
That seems bizarre to me, an apple or a low value meal ticket are not "something of value" unless you read things literally for no reason.
