MODERATORS
Instead of banning tipping, the law should maybe require to include all costs. This should not just apply to stuff served, but anything.
Banning tipping in restaurants implies that servers would need to be paid a fair wage without needing tips to make up for a lack of wages. Menu prices would incorporate those costs. Tipping in restaurants is the most invasive which is why I chose restaurants specifically.
So instead of banning tipping you mean removing minimum wage exceptions for tipping.
Fwiw a lot of restaurants worldwide are starting to include an obnoxious 12+% "service charge" that can be "removed" if you have a complaint. Basically, enforced tipping that wouldn't be changed by your "ban tipping" plan.
I definitely agree hard with more emphasis on removal of after-the-listed-price fees
Yes, ban minimum wage exceptions and service charges. Also I think taxes should be included on the prices of grocery store items.
you are correct. “ban tipping” is not an actionable platform and leaves too many variables up for abuse.
