Tipping Culture in the U.S.

A lot of Americans said they would ban tipping as a standard practice and instead force businesses to pay workers a fair wage. While many still tip generously, they argue it shouldn’t be necessary for someone to rely on it just to survive. Others mentioned the awkwardness and pressure of figuring out how much to tip for every kind of service. For them, a flat service fee or higher base pay would make things simpler and fairer.
