17. people who choose to work in bars, do so knowing they are working in a private establishment

that may have smokers..

Sorry, your argument is bunk. A bar is owned by an individual, who pays good money for his license to sell liquor. Non - smokers who insist that where they want to spend their money should be smoke free is ok, however what about the smoker who wishes to spend his money in an environment is non-smoker free? No, that`s not even considered a valid option by the puritan non-smoker community who wish to enforce their holier than thou bigotry on everyone. The mantra is, I can`t smoke, neither can you.

Then like the cowards they are, they try and play the "what about the workers" card. What a load of sanctimonious BS. The only non-smoker who I take seriously, is the one who doesn`t drive a car because he is concerned about the damage done to innocent passers by by his exhaust fumes, every other non-smoker who insists that private establishments be smoke free, but continues to pollute the atmosphere by driving a car or suv, and not harm only non-drivers like me, but enforce their lifestyle choices onto me in public places, are nothing more that grotesque hypocrites.

peace
