The solution is obvious, if you've ever worked a job in the service industries: make it illegal to pay these workers below minimum wage. I realized tipping was bullshit once you had to report it as taxed income, it's a uniquely pro-business practice for a country that prides itself on freedom of transaction so much. But no, because tipped minimum wage has to be calculated it all goes through the system.

The only solution is a policy requiring employees reject tips. (High-end restaurants that charge ex ante have begun doing this.)

- naveen99 2y agoWould such a policy even be legal ? Your link claims it’s illegal for employers to interfere with tips. Even politicians are allowed tips.
