    If you go to a business (e.g. a restaurant) that is known for offering low prices by paying sub-minimum wage subsidized by tips, and you happily pay the lower price without tipping, you are not helping.

    I wouldn’t support at a place like that at all.

    If a business is paying sub-minimum wage, it’s 100% up to the business to get their act together. We should force them to as a society (legally or otherwise), rather than bend over backwards to cover the shortfall as “tips”.

      That’s perfectly fine. If you don’t approve, don’t give the business your money. If you do, you’re complicit.
