I have 5+ on my facebook who constantly complain about their jobs in the service industry and tips. All of them I know for a fact make more than 50k a year in tips and they probably pay tax on a fraction of it. When waiters start reporting their tips as taxable income I'll have more sympathy for them not getting tipped enough.
In my experience that is logistically impossible to enforce. Its similar to why C-Train stations in Calgary are open instead of turn-styled. The cost of enforcing the regulations outweighs the benefits.
