Tipping culture has gone too far.
Opening9.2
Nobody knows the rules anymore, which makes every payment a small awkward test. For example, now even self-checkout screens ask for 20 percent. A tip used to reward service, now it is a guilt tax. That is why I stand on this side.Opening7.3
In many places tips are most of a worker's income. Cutting them hurts the people who serve you. For example, tipping lets customers reward great service directly, without a manager in between. Both points lead to the same place.Rebuttal6.4
My opponent leans hard on example. That ignores the bigger picture. In many places tips are most of a worker's income. Cutting them hurts the people who serve you. My opponent skipped this, which means their case has a hole in the middle.Rebuttal8.5
You keep coming back to "places", but that only tells half the story. Tips let businesses pay low wages and push the cost onto customers. My opponent skipped this, which means their case has a hole in the middle.Closing6.3
Put the real price on the menu and pay people properly. Remember, nobody knows the rules anymore, which makes every payment a small awkward test. The evidence points one way, and so do I.Closing6.9
Fix the wages first. Until then, tipping keeps people paid. Remember, in many places tips are most of a worker's income. Cutting them hurts the people who serve you. For all these reasons, I stand by my side.
