A higher federal minimum wage would solve this problem. Employers are required by law to make up the difference between the base wage and the federal minimum wage ($7.25/hr) if nobody tips.
But obviously $7.25 isn’t a living wage either, so any tipped employee that actually makes the federal minimum is living almost entirely on tips.
I got a similar reply from a mod account (I forget which subreddit) because I used the word “crazy.” Got linked to this list: https://www.autistichoya.com/p/ableist-words-and-terms-to-avoid.html
You should say “fewer Nazis.” Ha! Didn’t think you’d meet a grammar Nazi so soon did you?
Fair point. And this is why unions are beneficial to the working class, and also why shitty companies like Starbucks try to bust unions.
