    If enough people were willing to stop tipping to end the practice by ruining the lives of waitstaff by cutting off their source of income there would be enough people to push for laws to pay a fair wage without needing to cause the problem in the first place.

    It is the same logical leap that says if we just keep not voting for Democrats, they’ll suddenly get better.

      How is it the same? Democrat is not a job that needs filling. See what restaurants will do if their staff have to leave for better paying jobs.
