No offense intended toward any white-collar folks here-I worked on BOTH sides of the fence throughout the years before retiring-but-It's ALWAYS white-collar whining yuppies who are anti-smoker Taliban. Never suffered or went without, never will. Always had it easy-had it their way-and demand instant gratification on any subject. I've never once in my entire life met or heard of, any blue-collar people who were for total , sweeping bans. Not even the ones who hated the smell of tobacco. My theory is, the harder you have to work for what you have, the more you learn to respect other folks' hard work. Therefore, you are more likely to become infuriated when you see government taking anyone's livelyhood away.

No offense taken because I have also done both - sometimes at the same time.

It's ALWAYS white-collar whining yuppies who are anti-smoker Taliban. ABSOLUTELY..without question, you are perfectly correct

I've had a different experience regarding the white collar and blue collar attitudes. I find that both are equally at risk for being socialists willingly confiscating other people's property.
