higher wages for the servers... by the customers. Fnbs
Went to a restaurant in LA today and when I got the check I noticed that it was a bit higher than it should be. Then I noticed this 18% service charge. So... We, as customers, need to help pay for their servers instead of the owners paying their servers a living wage. And on top of that they have suggested tip. I called bs on this. I will bet you that the servers do not see a dime of this 18% service charge. [deleted a word so it wasn't a grammatical horror to read]

No, you'd leave the store having paid $120 for groceries with no wellness fee tacked on.
Did that make sense in your head?
Yes, and in reality. When you charge more per item for goods and services so that healthcare is included, they cost more.
A red-herring response if I've ever seen one.
This has literally nothing to do with the tactic of hiding additional fees so customers don't see them instead of just increasing prices, or the difference between pricing something a cent below a round number and adding a wellness fee at checkout.
I try to avoid playing pigeon chess, but it seems that's what I've been doing.
