Or a flat tax.

That’s just as intrusive. Even a minimum wage employee is going to have 10k of transactions a year.

Ayup. All of those waitresses living off of tips should pay very close attention to this.

That's not how it's calculated. The tips are paid to the restaurant, who in turn pays out the waitresses with one transaction at the end of the night.

In cities, almost no one pays in cash anymore, and so tips are automatically taxed anyway.

I already paid income tax on my savings.

If a national sales tax was implemented, that money would all be taxed again.

Seniors would really be hurt by the double tax

Depends on the place. Kitchen staff almost always gets bupkis. Busboys get paid out by servers at the end of the night, or the restaurant pulls it from the waiters' tips.
