This sounds like a reason for companies to rely even more on tipping to compensate their workers... How about instead we make the companies pay the taxes on worker income earned through tipping? Then we can finally do away this ludicrous system we're all pressured to abide by.

Bingo, if they don't have to report tips every employer is going to say minimums and say they must be lying if it's more or less.

Wow I actually really like that idea. I don't think I would've ever come up with it myself. It'd be cool to have a candidate platform made up of the best crowdsourced policy ideas.
