If they were worth more than $2.10 the free market would dictate they would be paid more than $2.10. They are being fairly compensated for their skillset according to the market.
Also, this is laughable. It's painfully obvious you have never been a waiter or bartender. It is not an unskilled profession at all, but I won't go into that. You can continue to be the person who doesn't tip and trashes all over the place but if more people were like you, than you would eventually be forced to pay the money a tip cost anyway. Restaurants would start paying their employees at least 10/hr and pass the cost on to you.

Most of the time the restaurant price isn't the problem. I wouldn't go to a restaurant if I considered it overpriced for the quality of food served. On the other hand I think waiters overvalued themselves at 15%.
You do realize that if wages went up, prices would go up to to compensate.

They are unskilled workers and are already being fairly compensated.
Depends on the environment, but if the place serves liquor and drinking is prevalent there, you're essentially babysitting drunk adults.

No, it's not. It would be akin to tipping the flight attendant-whose salary is already factored in to the price of your ticket.
