the ignorant belief is the complaining part since the rest of the world is just fine. a bullshit reason people who want to keep the scam custom ongoing use to fool the ignorant.

Where do you think the "scam" is? Where do you think money comes from? The owner of the restaurant does not just generate money out of thin air. His or her money comes from the revenue generated from the patrons. He doesn't just have a big bag of cash in the back that he's too greedy to hand out to his employees.

If I order a burger and it's $9 I tip 20% and pay $10.80. If tipping is abolished the price of that burger simply goes up to $10.80 and I pay... $10.80, with less guarantee of good service. A lot of these anti tipping people seem to believe it's a matter of them paying the waiter vs the employer paying the waiter. I don't know how else to explain this. YOU ARE PAYING, either way. If tipping goes away, somebody else isn't picking up the tab. You're still paying it.
