My breakfast place will not go out of business without me but I'm a big tipper and the waitress will notice the difference.

The same with me. I enjoy tipping well for good service. But they didn't stand up to fight to keep my business, so I will no longer be feeding my money into theirs. It's a crying shame with the economy so bad, that the lawmakers felt the need to do this. I have no answers for this.

Don't worry, when the state coffers begin to see the decline a tax increase will be put in place to ensure that they get that money from you after all! First ruin the market with government control, then increase dependent on government, finally take from one to give to another!

And the circle continues!
