"The restaurant bans are being passed on a more fundamental issue. The main issue is not the customers, its the employees.

In most states, employees are guaranteed a smoke free environment in which to work. Unfortunately, bar and restaurant workers have been exempt from enjoying the same smoke free environment that other workers have. These bans allow these employees to work in a safer, smoke free environment."

Well, since we are now able to ensure everyone safe employement, we have a few occupations to eliminate. Let's start with fishing boat jobs, they are just to dangerous. Then we can move on to construction, how about police or fireman? Let's just ban soldiers too, that job is to dangerous and we don't want people to be able to chose where to work!

Yes, 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.
