Yeah -- The goal is not to keep servers, etc. working at minimum wage, it's to eliminate tips in favor of employers paying a livable wage.

I'd rather the menu prices reflect the actual cost of the item, including the service workers' wages, than have to tack on another n% at the end. And, at least back in the before-times for the like, month, I worked as a server, I would've loved to go to work and not worry about "Oh shit, it's the Sunday church crowd" and resign myself to not making any money that shift.
