    My gut says that not taxing “tips” is only going to embolden companies looking to move line item payouts, and force more people to work for minimum wage.

    You’ll see a massive wave of previously non-tip jobs turn into tipped jobs, which only benefits the employer.

      Yep. We’ve already seen a massive push of POS that prompt you for a % based tip… Testing 20% as minimum in some cases. As tip fatigue sets in, more and more places are going to find that fewer and fewer people are tipping.

      Frankly speaking, no job should be tip based.
