    The thing is the consumers are paying the cost. The business owners are just taking more of the profits. They just need to pay the workers more.

    And the “choice” you mention is a false one. People can’t really refuse to pay a tip, can they? They’ll get a lot of hostility from the staff (who have been brainwashed to think that it’s the customers’ responsibility). Notice that this isn’t really a thing outside the US.
