Because it logically follows. If the businesses have to stop relying on customers to pay their employees what they are worth. Someone should have to pay their employees a valid living wage. And that logically would be the company.
Right but that’s not the logic I replied to. @[email protected] proposed a ban on tips, not on below min wage payments, then wrote as a separate statement that higher wages should be demanded. So @[email protected]’s interpretation was an incorrect interpretation – though it’s the right idea.
You seem to be viewing tips as an all-or-nothing proposition. When in fact you can have a tipping culture that is not used as a crutch for wages (as most of Europe demonstrates).
That would make sense, but then why did they follow that with “Workers need to demand living wages at the same time as ban comes into effect”?
