    Yeah, no.

    If you’re expecting tipping culture to die while people still tip, you’re living in a fantasy-land. If people living off of tips start noticing they’re not making as much, they will start demanding more from their employers.

    Tipping is a band-aid solution that needs to go away.

      So don’t participate AT ALL. Otherwise, the capitalist still makes money, and as such, WILL NOT CHANGE.

      Going to a restaurant and not tipping doesn’t do shit other than fuck over the employee. And it never will.

      Get a clue.

        Yeah, no.

        People who work on tips need to fight back against the exploitation. Right now, there are still too many of them who say things like “I make more with tips.” In which case, fine. They can “make more” without my tip.

        Once the data shows that they can make more with proper wages instead of tips, then that’s what will happen. It’s already what happens in most places other than America.

        You’ve been conditioned to parrot rhetoric that only exists to keep the status quo going as long as possible.
