    A 15% tip already scales proportionally to prices. Why the percentage needed to go up too, I have no idea.

      Because the cost of living is going up even faster.

        Than restaurant prices? Is that even the case? I would love to see data comparing general CPI to restaurant prices to housing costs in recent years.

        Anecdotally, it feels like restaurant prices have been on the leading edge. Obviously will vary a lot by area, especially for comparisons to housing.

          Housing greatly outpaces CPI as well.
