"We sure don't have the big funds that the anti-smoking lobby has, so we have to try to reason with the lawmakers to show them that smoking bans in a private business is choking the economy."
Thanks for your work. I don't smoke-- never have, never will-- but I find the intrusion into our personal lives and the economic effect it has on private business owners reprehensible.
That's all we want to do in here. Make the general non-smoking FReepers realize what is going on. How the war on smokers (their fellow FReepers) has turned into a demon project.
If the government wanted state free of smoking, you KNOW they would ban all tobacco products. They won't and haven't. What does that tell you?
The lawmakers think they have found willing patsy's to ban, control and restrict. Some how someway we have to turn the tides on the state government.
