But why should pick up the tab for the government failing to regulated some business and employers exploiting the lack of regulations?

If you disagree with the practice, then don't spend money at those businesses. Going to a tip-based restaurant and not tipping enriches the exploitative owner while adding to the exploitation.

Do you also think it's fine to buy cheap goods made with slave labor because you're not personally the one cracking the whip?
