CMV: Tipping should be removed from the norm.

I strongly do not believe tipping is good for the world. Tipping introduces a lot of issues.

Issues like: 
Making customers feel like shit if they can't tip or if they don't tip enough.

If customers tip why should the employer pay a fair wage.

Tipping shouldn't give you better service. If you receive good service, that just means they did their job. 

Bonuses from the boss are not tips. Bonuses are just that, they are supplied by the boss. In turn yes you can argue that the client is paying in a way. But that's okay because their not tipping. Let's say a burger costs the company 5$ and charges you 8$. You then tip 2$ because the waiter is under paid.  Would it not be better to charge the customer 10$ for that burger and pay the waiter a fair salary?

If you tip based on salary why don't you tip places like video game industries or dentists etc. These industries are notoriously well known for housing interns. Most of the time these interns are not paid at all. 

If you tip based off of effort then why is it restricted to the service industry?

Tipping as a tradition traces its root back to 1920s Prohibition. A restaurant couldn't put "3 beers" on a receipt - beer was illegal. However, if they sold beer, they wanted to get paid for the beer. Thus, the tip was born - it was a way for restaurants to get paid for food items which they were legally barred from putting on the receipt. 

The general justification for tipping follows similar arguments - the tip is supposed to reflect aspects of the restaurant experience - which were not built into the price. Witty banter, smiley faces, general helpfulness - this is what a tip is intended to reflect. 

I agree - the weird - YOU HAVE TO TIP OR YOUR A TERRIBLE PERSON - that needs to end. However, giving a few extra $, when someone has gone out of their way to be nice - that makes sense to me. 

I give you the money - You give me the donut - end of transaction - this justifies "full price". Going above and beyond, and making the transaction better for me, in a way which isn't reflected on the receipt - that is the purpose of the tip.
