    This doesn’t sound like a good idea at all. If a person relies on tips for a livable wage, it should be taxed. If you work for tips, it’s taxable income.

      No one should be working for tips as their primary income anyway. Pay people a living wage.

      I intentionally go to support restaurants where I know they pay their employees a living wage.

      Echoing the other comment, tips shouldn’t be the main source of income at a job, so they shouldn’t incur taxes.
