If you knowingly buy chinese goods produced with slave labor you're a shitbag and they're a shitbag. There can be more than one shitbag in the chain.

Yes, the people refusing to pay them properly are the shitbags. The employer is a shitbag, and the customer who refuses to tip is a shitbag.

If someone is not even attempting to getting the law that allows their core income to come from tips changed that makes one complicit and therefore obligated to tip.

If you are fine with server's primary income coming from tips then you are obligated to tip.
