I think they do generally not just at Christmas as the people who get most tips like Waiters, Hairdressers etc are some of the lowest paid. Why if a hairdresser or taxi driver is self employed so thus getting the money that you pay them, should you feel the need to give them a tip.
What an incoherent argument - binmen & postmen are NOT self employed, they are also (in my part of Rural Sussex anyway) a bunch of blokes who turn upon time, do their job without f***ing up and (in the case of our Postie) are a method of checking up on our aging and infirm neighbours.
Still if you want to be a tightwad then go ahead, no doubt you will get the service you deserve....
