I agree. In my area, the public was against the smoking bans voted in, but now they love it and are in favor of it. It's a selfish agenda vs. the big picture.

News from Florida:

The ban has been especially tough on smaller, local hangouts like Rodbender's Raw Bar and Grill in Cutler Ridge.

For nearly two months after the law took effect, owner Kathy McMillan banned smoking. She said she lost almost 90 percent of her customers, and more than $14,000 in sales.
