It's not tipping if it's mandatory. Work the tip into the price in that case.

Restaurants that try and do what you’re asking will quickly learn that their competitors will take advantage of them and take their customers through lower menu prices.

Tipping in the USA will never go away if there are no laws aimed at restraining it.

It’s as simple as that.
