So I guess you would have also fought the introduction of health inspectors into restaurants. What about all of the food preparation guidelines that must be followed. I suppose that is merely the nanny state imposing its will on the free market?

Please, this "argument" has been refuted so many times that it has scar tissue.

Restaurant patrons are not privy to the goings on in a restaurant kitchen, so health inspectors are necessary agents acting on behalf of the public.

On the other hand, restaurant patrons know from the minute they enter whether or not smoking is allowed. They can choose to leave or remain at that point.

Since you state that no restaurants in Florida allow smoking anymore, you should be in Nirvana.

So other than being here to throw gratuitous insults about smoking, and otherwise committing first-degree pecksniffery, what's your complaint?

Did you see my post where I said that I voted against the constitutional amendment that passed in Florida?
