If you don't tip other minimum wage earners you are not principled. There are still many non-tipped minimum-wage jobs.

You aren't wrong, but cultural expectations are hard to beat.

However, these days, everyone barring McDonalds asks for a tip. I eat/take out less because of it, but I'll tip at least 10% even if there is no service involved.
