Are you a bot or is english a 2nd language? Yes it is the law. Employers in the states regularly break labor laws and nobody does anything about it. So it is only theoretically illegal, since it is almosy never enforced.
That doesnt mean you should stiff the server because their boss sucks. That is insane logic and could cost them their rent. Instead, report businesses that dont pay enough and help lobby to get rid of tips all together.
Or just sit there and be a stingey little cry baby, your move.
Why is your default assumption that wage theft is occurring? If you dont tip the employer will pay min wage that is the law and its regularly enforced. If they dont there are millions of lawyers who will take that open and shut case of wage theft.
You are trying to argue this stupid position of we must tip because wage theft to white knight for waitstaff but they dont care about that, they just want tips because it pays far above min wage or what waitstaff make in other countries.
I didnt misunderstand your point is just dumb. If 7.25 is to low then it needs to be raised. The answer is raising the min wage not forcing customers to tip that is so stupid. But even raising min wage to $15 an hour would still have servers complaining because they make way more than that. Getting rid of tipping would put more pressure on the min wage being raised and benefit people who make 7.25 an hour who arent able to collect tips.
No not theoretically. Its the law.

Yeah you have completely misunderstood my point. If you think 7.25 is a living wage, youre still an asshole
