Yeah I actually hate it when servers don't declare tips. I think it's a bit harder now that most restaurant tips are on visa and paid at as part of the pay check. But I don't have sympathy for anyone having to pay taxes on their income. I especially hate cash job contractors.
In general though I do think this is a way to increase taxable revenue for the government. I've seen scenarios where people get a four hundred a check increase in pay but only net around a hundred and fifty.
