To begin with i'm sure your post was partly in jest. I'm also sure it reflects genuine, if somewhat unacknowledged resentment on your part.

Casinos will use your money to pay dealers. Either you tip them or they rake more. The alternative is to find people who work for minimum wage. Do you know who works for minimum wage? The handicapped guy waving to your sorry cheap ass on the way into Walmart. He works for minimum wage. Is that the sort of person you want dealing your cards, running your game?

As players we all benefit from good dealers. Read that part again. We ALL win when good dealers are running our games. When you try to be the one cheap ass who doesn't uphold his part of the bargain it is just that. Cheap. You are not a strong, independent thinker on a higher more objective plane of morality, you are a self deluding weasel who is benefiting from the generosity of all the other players that choose to support you.

There should be a reject table where the shitty dealers and the shitty tippers can hang out and wallow in their shitty attitudes.
