The only time I agree with a forced % is if there is a party of 10 or more, seperate checks or one bill this ensures everyone pays their share.
Bars and full service I tip at least 20% - cafe's and starbucks I leave some change but thats a personal choice.
If a family is concerned about a 5 dollar tip making or breaking feeding your family, then they should not be dinning out.. or hit up fast food.. you still dont have to tip there.

Yup Magnus is right.
I heard an interesting philosphy on tipping the other day. It is not the server's fault if the service is bad, it's the RESTAURANT'S fault. Hence you should tip your normal 15% and call the restaurant the next day to complain about your service. Most likely the restaurant will want you to come back and offer you a free meal. Trust me a owner of a restaurant will be very interested to know if his service is bad in his/her restaurant and will get that fixed. By leaving a pennies tip that will not get back to the owner hence the waiter/waitress doesn't want to let them know that they are not doing their job properly and get fired.
