Liebling, I think you are oversimplifing everything. Some waiters actually enjoy their jobs so they don't mind working for tips. Some of them love to "socialise" and be around people, serving them with a friendly attitude. They are like natural-born waiters. Their positive attitude shows in their service, and it usually earns them great tips. If they did not want to be waiters, then they can always seek employment elsewhere.
Like Reba said, there is no competition for tables. Waiters are assigned to certain tables, and hosts bring the customers to their tables.
It's not blackmailing in my opinion. I agree with Reba, if you can't afford to tip in a restaurant, then don't go at all. I have given 20$ to 30$ tips to waiters for wonderful services in an expensive restaurant (with bill being about 100$), but it pays for a wonderful dinner in a great atmosphere, with wonderful people serving me. I don't want slaves serving me for cheap tips. If I didnt want to pay so much tip, I can always go to Arby's or Wendy's where workers are still paid with slave wages anyhow (minimum wage nationalwide is about 5.25$) I call it slave wage because they have to do everything, frying the fries, nuking the burgers and filling drink up for you, whereas a waiter in a restaurant just brings the order to a cook and brings the food and drink to you.
