That seems excessive. We could start by raising the minimum wage to a living wage and eliminating the special rules for tipped employees ($2.13/hour wage, etc.)

If customers know the workers get paid decently, they probably wouldn't feel obliged to leave a tip. And business owners might switch to a no-tip policy since a better customer experience could attract more customers.

- foxyv 2y agoI've never understood the reasoning behind this carve out. Tips are supposed to be in addition to the worker's wage to show appreciation for good service. Not a replacement for their wages. This has made tipping from a nice thing to do to a necessity if you receive service. You are essentially paying the restaurant's payroll. It's insanity!
