You recognize that restauratuers and legislators are the ones failing workers, yet you attribute the lost wages to the paying customer. What can we as paying customers do to fail the workers so that you recognize restauratuers and legislators as being responsible for their fair wages?

are you allergic to believing that two things can be true at once

If you fail to tip them, you've failed them too. It's not complex.

You argument absolves the restaurateurs if consistently applied because the legislators failed them upstream (that's not to speak of absolving the legislators because of the voters) - I'm saying the legislators failed them, then the restaurateurs failed them, then the people that refused to tip them failed them. There's not a single point of failure, but that doesn't mean it's OK for you to decide to be the ultimate point of failure.
