"Any true conservative should support any employer who choses not to employ smokers."

How about if that employer chooses to fire a long time employee, or anyone for that matter, for supporting the Iraq war? Or just being a republican? Do you, as a "true" conservative support that too? If not, why not?

Yep, I sure do. The company/business/place of employment BELONGS to the shareholders or the private business owner. As such, the person(s) owning that business should be the ONLY ones who dictate the business's criteria for operating. Employees, voters, juries, judges and politicians should not have a say in something that they had no role in creating or managing.
