    Because it logically follows. If the businesses have to stop relying on customers to pay their employees what they are worth. Someone should have to pay their employees a valid living wage. And that logically would be the company.

      Right but that’s not the logic I replied to. @[email protected] proposed a ban on tips, not on below min wage payments, then wrote as a separate statement that higher wages should be demanded. So @[email protected]’s interpretation was an incorrect interpretation – though it’s the right idea.

      You seem to be viewing tips as an all-or-nothing proposition. When in fact you can have a tipping culture that is not used as a crutch for wages (as most of Europe demonstrates).
