Laws such as labor (protecting the rights of workers), chemicals and food additives, transportation etc (safety of the consumer) those are up to legislature.
Legislature is to protect the people as a whole. Other than that moral laws and laws affecting personal rights should be left up to the voters in that community since they are the ones living there and not the politicians, who live in Columbus or DC and visit when it suits them.

Great, we agree. Banning smoking in restaurants and bars falls firmly under protecting the rights of workers.
