The service industry is notoriously cutthroat. No entrepreneur is going to go smoke free if he thinks it could cost him customers.
As a result, the vast majority will choose to allow smoking. Employees would have to choose between working in a potentially hazardous environment or changing their means of making a living.
Before you answer, put yourself in their shoes. Imagine that you are given a choice between a potential risk to your health or changing careers. Think about all that would mean to you before throwing out a flippant answer.
I am torn on this one. I could care less if you smoke your brains out and I believe government has no place controlling what you do to yourself. But should government get involved when you start affecting others?
A potential "risk" lives only in the minds of those who've accepted the canard about the health effects of second-hand smoke.
People change careers all the time. I have, along with countless others. This is the nature of life, although whining about it is behavior encouraged by collectivist groupthink. Victimhood is all. We're none the better for it.
Think about all that would mean to you before throwing out a flippant answer.
Your condescension is palpable. I sniff a "career" in Sociology or something equally useful like phrenology.
Change resturants.
A lot of people have to make a lot harder choices, seesh, we are raising a bunch of wusses.
Buy your own resturant.
