Are you obliged to tip or can you refuse? (feddit.online)

I'm not into tipping when I've visited the US, since I come from a country where servers are paid the equivalent of Fr. 20-30 ($24-43) an hour so there isn't an obligation to tip them, but that's the opposite in the US. Am I allowed to hand them large cash tips such as Fr. 1000 ($1236) or 500€ ($583)? It gets weirder: as apparently fast food places demand a tip, like really? It's getting out of hand, what's the point then?

You know the older I get the more I realise that the only thing the US has in common with other English speaking countries is the language. It's like the US is behind the rest of the world or in some cases does completely opposite, then trys to force their way of thinking or standards on everyone else
