Waiters in the States get paid 2.13 and hour. Tipping is so that you can control the level of service that you receive. How many times have you gone into Wal-Mart and not been able to find someone to help you? Or you get shitty service at a store in the Mall? Ideally an employeer should fire people for a poor job, but that is not always the case. Sometimes managers don't know about it, or see it. Sometimes they don't care about it. So the tip is what you hold over the waiters head so that you get good service.
Personally I don't want to go into a nice restaurant drop a hundred bucks and get service like I would get at Wal-Mart. Thanks but no thanks, I will continue to tip.
