Well, since we are now able to ensure everyone safe employement, we have a few occupations to eliminateYes, of course there is no sense in unnecessary risks. When a job has inherent risks to it, why add unnecessary risks ? Cigarette smoke isn't necessary to the accomplishment of the job of serving drinks and meals.

Who decides what an unnecessary risk is? Shouldn't it be left up to the individual employee to decide that they can accept said risk for the potential monetary reward? Many jobs exist with both necessary and unnecessary risks. The individuals decide to either take these risks or find other employment. If a labor pool didn't exist for smoking bars and restaurants, then neither would these establishments.
Not only do you need a customer, but you also need the labor to serve the customer. Seems to me both sides of the equation were voluntary and both sides were getting along just fine.
