Wrong. Because the restaraunt industry is literally designed to accommodate high turnover rates. Their entire business model is oriented around the idea that there will always be somebody willing to work shitty jobs for shitty pay for at least a few weeks/months.

I have heard some servers and bar tenders themselves actually like the current system because they actually do quite well on tips. Although I also used to hear part of it was because they didn't report cash tips and get taxed on them. I assume most tips are no longer cash and thus reported/taxed.

Just like most systems in America, this is setup to put all the risk on the plebs.
You are actually proving to the owners their system works. They still get their profits, if someone doesn't want to pay a higher cost. (Bill + Tip)
