This is just knee-jerk panic by smokers and Chicken Littles. As usual, there is (literally) neither smoke, nor fire. And, every other place that has banned publis smoking has not seen a decrease in business. This is all much ado about nothing.

I don't know what planet you are living on, but it sure isn't ours! You better start paying more attention.

The REAL Results of Smoking Bans

Bring them to your politicians. Tell them ENOUGH IS ENOUGH! This failed experiment in human behavior is killing people and it has to stop now. Death certificates from "smoking" are zero, while death certificates from smoking bans and making a legal product un-politically correct are rising.

Antismoking Lobbyists parade vague studies, filled with vague statistics, based upon vaguely designed business criteria, and make vague claims that after three years or so of vague losses, “businesses will recover and bounce back to almost pre-ban levels” as ravening thirsty hordes of nonsmokers currently cowering in their homes transform into wild party animals. Of course this vague assertion only holds true if we pretend that general economic inflation does not exist, but that’s no more fanciful than the rest of the Antismoking Lobby’s assertions.

We on the other hand simply present close to 500 on the record REAL examples of REAL businesses and REAL people negatively affected in a REAL way by smoking bans. No statistics. No numbers juggling. No “private data” that can’t be examined by the public. Just reality. If your town is heading toward a smoking ban, read these pages and weep.

Or else… stand up and do something about it: Antismokers say bans are “inevitable,” in the Borg’s Star Trek fashion of telling you that “Resistance is futile.” Resistance is not futile! Bar and restaurant owners can work together to fight for the right to run their private businesses free from interference by social engineers seeking to “Denormalize” smokers by forcing them from public view. These bans can be, and in many cases HAVE BEEN stopped.

Stand up and fight for your rights.

Economic Losses Due To Smoking Bans. By David W. Kuneman and Michael J. McFadden. Claims studies can only find smoking bans are bad for business when funded by Big Tobacco or its affiliates, or use anecdotal data are not true. We have shown smoking bans hurt bar and restaurant businesses 80% of the time using data from the U.S. Dept of Commerce.
