I don't like the concept of tipping in the first place (although I make an effort to tip well anyway), but I definitely do not want tipping expanded any further than it already is.

If restaurant owners can create an even more opaque pricing structure that shifts the rest of their employee costs onto customers they will.

Thing is, it's not even the restaurant owners that are blocking a change to "all incl." prices - it's the waiters, too.

Waiting is one of the very few jobs where an untrained person can earn lots of money just by doing their job and being nice.
