I agree with that. If you go to a tipping restaurant and just don't tip you aren't actually attacking the culture because A) The culture is driven top down by the business. and B) The business isn't running on tips. When you pay the bill minus a tip, the business still got every dime they were intending to. They have no incentive to change.

So even if you don't agree with me that this is a systemic issue that requires a systemic solution, you have to not give tipping businesses money at all if you want to even have a hope of making an impact on an individual level.
