If you continually buy product from a place that doesn’t pay their staff better, all you’re doing is rewarding the business owner and telling them to keep doing what they’re doing. It solves nothing and doesn’t get rid of tipping culture to keep giving these shitty businesses your money.

I obviously don’t agree with this opinion; I don’t think either of them makes sense.

Change either needs to come from the top down via legislation, or from the bottom-up via unionization.
Here’s a tip. Pay your employees better.
