💬Questions & Discussion
: "Why can't we just use the European approach, tax and tip is baked into the menu price? If the menu says $20 for a burger you pay $20 for a burger instead $16.99 + 8% + 18%? Is that crazy?"

📊Economic Analysis
: "The minimum recommended tip was once 15% now it is 18%, has the quality of service gone up 3%? Don't say inflation because that is already there because the cost of a meal has really gone up which makes the old 15% higher automatically."
