You’re right that continuing to tip won’t change the system. I don’t know what the solution is but I feel like it will come out of solidarity with tipped workers rather than withholding the money that they need to survive. Their bosses don’t care if they get tips or not. Maybe it will come from the workers organizing a union and make getting rid of tipping one of their demands

I agree with you that waiters should be paid a living wage directly by the business owners instead of getting most of their pay from tips. That way they aren’t relying on the whims of the customers to support themselves.

That said, I still tip because they rely on it. Should the system change? 100%. But that change has to come about in a way that doesn’t harm the people you want to help

Looks like they decided to make a backup here just in case

It’s still possible for people from the US to visit Cuba. Trump took away the most popular way though. A bunch of organizers just went a couple of months ago.
