    They were only able to set that wage because of the server and the customer.

    I’m not at all arguing the business owner is ethical. They are a piece of shit. The entire intention of my argument against tipping is to force the business owner to raise wages. Force. Not ask nicely and hope lol.

      They were only able to set the wage so low because they have no conscience that tells them people should be able to afford both food and shelter.

        I don’t disagree. But relying on them magically getting such a conscience is naive. I say we force them rather than hoping they do the right thing.
