If everyone is supposed to get the same tip regardless of how well they do their job, why don't we just increase prices across the board and get rid of the whole concept of tipping? Right now, generous tippers are subsidizing those who tip less (or not at all).
The system as it exists, only benefits the Springs1 type people of the world who treat their tip as some grand reward to be withheld at the slightest offense.

I am opposed for tipping for good service as well. I have a flat rate service charge I charge myself for eating at an establishment. I can't change the system myself but I can at least take the judgement out of it. I expect management rather than myself be responsible for the quality of service.
