When was the last time you went somewhere and weren't prompted for a tip?

Every small business and many bigger businesses use the same card reader that asks for a tip percentage, and has no tip in small print. I shake my head because I know a lot of customers are too spineless to choose NOT to tip when given a prompt.

For a $5 tip, I will say yes or no. A $10 tip gets you one sentence.

$20 gets you two sentences.

I don't eat at restaurants anymore in general because it's already too expensive without the attempt to guilt you into a 20-25% tip.

sushi places here are adding a mandatory 15% gratuity for dining in; no matter the party size. That's out of control

I don't like it, but at least it's optional.

I guess that brings in more customers than simply raising prices?

I'd say that out of all the things we have here that are out of control, tipping is actually one of the least out of control.
