That sounds like I did something to push the government to intervene. I did not! I have not voted, I have not picketed, I have not written letters, made phone calls or anything else to push the non smoking agenda. All I have done is smile when I ask for the non smoking section and I am informed that the whole place, restaurant, hotel, airline etc.... is ALL non smoking. I smile REAL BIG and I make a point to go there again!
I guess that is what you call voting with your feet..... and your dollars.
I’ve always voted with my feet - and dollars. And that includes not supporting any establishment that pushed for the government intervention. Including what had been one of my favorite establishments that was totally opposed to the ban, until he was bribed by the local restaurant association that was funded by the big chain restaurants.
I didn’t say you did anything to encourage the intervention, but you support it anyway because it has made establishments to your liking without you having to do anything. That is the same in my book.
