I see accepting that is part of ‘tolerating tipping culture’. Indeed, the system as it is now would not realistically allow for tipping to be obliterated. But just saying “it doesn’t work, for this and that reason…” and then continuing the status quo, will not change anything.
You’ve seen what happens in France when the workers are unhappy. What America needs, first and foremost, is powerfull unions, make the minimal wage reflect a decent living wage at least, make the waiters wage an acceptable wage, and then abolish tipping. Accepting the status quo is tolerating it.
