'Zero tip,' some say if minimum wage rises

If the minimum wage is increased I think many people will decrease or eliminate tips. that means the lower income earners will get more taxable income and less income they can hide. Not a good trade.

I find tip jar at Subway and the like disgusting. You made my sandwich properly, as you were paid to do, I should reward you further??
More people will start eating at home.
I tip well now but the increase in the cost of the dinner etc. would really reduce my inclination to give a tip.
I fully realize that this increase is not the fault of the server, but they are now getting more pay without having to provide service.
