Thats just scary!

I am wondering why waiters get paid so little in the US anyway. In germany for example they might not got LOADS of money, but they get enough to not require 15% or 20% tips to survive! And all the restaurants still make good money, and they are NOT more expensive!
Becuase they can..
The government needs to step in and put a stop to this mess.
