Curt: let's say you and megs eat out in my restaurant and your bill is $50. That means the government is going to make me pay taxes on a $5 tip regardless of how much you actually tip me. In my tax bracket, that means I lose about $1.50 to the government before you ever bring out your wallet.
Now, why don't you explain to me just how "appreciative" I am supposed to be if you leave a $1 tip? That means that besides making less than 1/2 the national minimum wage, I have actually
paid money out of my own pocket for the privilege of being your waiter.
You can guess exactly where you can stick your "any tip should be appreciated, no matter how small."
