I can't imagine the lack of integrity and moral compass it takes to demand the service and then stiff the server. Likewise, if you are trying to protest the owners of the restaurants "not paying their workers" I don't see how stiffing an hourly worker and paying the owner anyhow counts as a protest. It just looks like stiffing your server.
Servers, believe it or not, prefer tips than wages. Why? Because they routinely lie on their income tax and they get paid more with tips - especially those who work in fancy restaurants and get tipped nicely.
So this entire charade is just bad for the customers. I'll pay the 15-25% just because I'm not a dickhead but at the same time, their service isn't worth that 15-25%. A normal meal with family/friends can easily run up $300+ where I'm from at a decent restaurant. That's around $50 per person for a meal/drinks. Why should I then have to tip $60 when all they are doing is bringing out the food and drinks? Give customers the option to just pick it up at the counter once their order is called if they don't want a server. For those who prefer a server, that'll be a 15-25% automatic charge.
The only way tipping makes sense, IMO, is if they charge a flat price per customer.. $5 per person, fine, whatever. But the silliness in all of this is when I order a steak versus a chicken rotisserie and even though they are doing the SAME amount of work to bring out either dish, I'm forced to pay 20% on a $50 steak whereas the chicken is only 20% for a $20 rotisserie? That makes no sense.... charge me a flat fee, you're doing the same work.
The point is, this tipping culture just sucks and we're better off without one. Restaurants want it because they can pad prices without having the onus to pay for servers at the expense of customers and servers overwhelmingly favor tips because they earn more and underreport so they can qualify for government subsidies. it's a joke.

And most restaurants charge $10-20 for a meal (we are currently in a thread about $5 pancakes). If your average family meal is $50/person to get to "decent", your drinks are either bulking this bill up or your definition of "decent" is not what most people are thinking of.

lots of restaurants in NYC have a lower price if you pay cash because they don't want to pay the interchange fee, can lie about income, and servers don't get taxed.
