An idea I haven't seen discussed anywhere in this argument (perhaps I missed it) is a smoking license. Much like an alcohol license, it serves to answer both sides of the issue. It generates revenue for the government, but the cost to the owner is made up by increased patronage from smokers, and bars that choose not to pay for the license are attractive to the nonsmokers. What's the problem with this theory?
