Oh geez. Of course the gargantuan difference is that my arteries don't get clogged if someone from a neighboring table is eating french fries while I eat my twigs and grass.
There is no difference in the eyes of those who say, "I am from the government. . .I am here to help you."
No one wanted to buy the 'slippery slope' argument when people were complaining about government butting into private business and telling them they could not allow smoking. Maybe now, some of them will listen.
Nah, they won't care until it affects their life choices.
