That kind of negates the premise around gratuities. At some businesses it [b]is[/b], really—calculated into the cost of the meal. Arguably there might be less incentive to provide the best service.

[@ In some restruants the tips are put into a pot and then devided amung the servers whether they gave good service or not. I believe good service deserves a good tip. I've wandered around a restruant to find the server to make sure they get the tip.
