What I don't understand is this...
If people prefer going to bars and clubs, etc that don't allow smoking - why don't these clubs exist prior to government intervention. Hell guys, it's the internet age. All of you non-smokers could post all of the bars that are non-smoking and go and have a great non-smoking time together. Instead you have to get the damn government involved.
I can understand people not wanting me to smoke in my office building or next to them at a stadium. I have learned that it's nicer to just walk away and smoke alone - or with another poor rejected smoker. But in a bar?
"Hey Stacy, I'm gonna go to a bar and drink till my liver explodes, and take home some guy I just met and have unprotected sex, but I swear if I have to deal with just one cigerette I will shoot someone." Bah.
The person who complained about smokers getting 15 minute breaks during the day should understand how much it sucks ass to stand outside this time of year. Trust me, we would rather light up at our desks and keep on working.
And to the guy who is sticking up for the rights of the employee - wouldn't it be easier if the employees just went to the owner and asked that an exhaust fan be installed? If enough good people asked it, the owner would likely install one. Or, I don't know, get a new job? But no, he wants the government involved. Makes me sick.
But I will make you a deal. Since you are getting rid of smoking and non-smoking sections - can we now have children and non-children sections? I would consider this a fair trade. Especially on airplanes.
