I'm going to be called all sorts of things for this sentiment: if one runs a business, one should not be able to choose their customers, except by ability to pay.

***************

You do understand that "if one runs a business"--
(unless it is a utility or public transportation...)
As long as mt products & services are legally manufactured & obtained (or created) and leaglly traded...
It is a private enterprise? Yes??

****************

Soooo....
... I think I hear you saying...

I can walk into your upscale, valet-parking, fancy-schmancy, coat & tie required restaurant...
...With no shirt... bad hair... & bad attitude...
...nine pounds of gold chains around my neck....
...flipflops (maybe)... and...
---frayed cargo shorts...

--AND DEMAND TO BE SERVED--

TO HECK WITH YOUR RULES....

...AND TO HECK WITH YOUR CAREFULLY CRAFTED BUSINESS REPUTATION...
...AS A TOP-DRAWER FINE DINING ESTABLISHMENT...

I have money... I am able to pay...
I never leave home without it....

You MUST seat me.... you MUST serve me....

..NOW HOP TO IT...

re: dress restrictions. They're the same for everyone, and do not judge whether or not I have the same beliefs or lifestyle as the proprietors.

Couldn't this happen with the exclusion thing....as an example, say Mormons or Jews or Muslims had hotels that only rented rooms to their own. Assume they also had other hotels for everyone else. Assume they charged a lot less and gave a lot more services and extras in "their" hotels, subsidized by the outsider's hotels.

Wouldn't this law allow for that?
