If there's a surcharge, then you shouldn't have to tip.

Bottom line, the USA should pay their workers the rate they are entitled
to, as the rest of the (civilised) world does.... instead of being the
cheap assholes they are and paying "minimum wage" where the worker has to
survive on tips to live.

If you pay your workers peanuts, you get monkeys doing the job.
