I basically agree with your point of view, but the fact of the matter is that the way servers are paid is an exception to the rule. It's unlike other businesses, and even on a federal level the wage laws are different specifically for servers.
It's an issue that's a lot more complex to solve than just stiffing your server and saying, "I've done my part to fix things!"
Oh, for sure. It's not something you, I, or just any group of people can change. It needs to change from upside down.
The issue is that changes like that don't happen unless they are almost forced to by really big groups demanding it.
