That's not true everywhere. In Washington State (and some other places around US) minimum wage is the same for everyone including tipped employees. So please stop spreading this flawed logic and accept that it's just another way for restaurant owners screw you over with your own full consent

I don't have to guess, I know the prices won't be that different. Not everyone knows it, but in WA state everyone including tipped employees must get the same minimum wage of over $9 an hour (to be increased to $15 in Seattle over the next several years). So the argument about underpayed workers doesn't hold any ground here, but people are still expected to tip.
