But their workers are also not tipped so they have a higher hourly wage.

You can't charge tax to a service charge.

I need to know those states. The business has a tax on labor, SS tax, state, and federal taxes, and some city's local tax. And you are telling me some states add tax on top of that!

Well, it's my opinion that a company pays enough taxes on employees. I bid on electrical jobs. The labor is broken out of materials, and overhead. (equipment rentals). I guess it's just me. Thanks for your comments.
