    Nope. It’s not my obligation to pay their wages directly. They can accept no tip, they can lobby for a living wage from their employer, or they can find a different job. I am okay with all of the above.

    The only way change happens is through action, not just crying about it. If you want change, stop tipping.

      ah yes, put the onus on the people just trying to survive while still patronizing the restaurant that the owner continues to make profits on.

      If you feel this strongly, you should boycott all restaurants that make their servers rely on tips.
