The fact is you see people who are depending on you to not mistreat them, and you piss in their face because, evidently, fuck them for hoping you'd just shell out the extra money that would be on the bill anyway if everybody was a fuck like you.
And I can't believe you're so stupid as to think by not eating out you're depriving waiters of money. If restaurants suddenly stop getting customers, they'll get rid of the tip thing. If they stay open, that means people are still coming, which means people who aren't cheap assholes are fixing the system, instead of taking advantage of it.

Actually, if you read on - he stated that if he found an establishment that did "mistreat" their employees by not satisfying the minimum standards set by law, that he'd stop frequenting there as a matter of principle.
As for your point of "if people still go there, they must have corrected the problem" - you could not be more wrong. Wal-Mart has a long and documented history of not exactly always being "fair" with it's employees, and people STILL shop there, and make the corporation even more money to add to it's coffers.
