You are talking about government intervention. I am talking about way back before that, when the businesses did this because their customers asked them for a place to eat with out breathing smoke. They responded to their customers but they did it badly and it didn’t work.

But it apparently worked for the owners, didn’t it?

When Wahington, DC put in the government imposed ban soemthing like 90% of the eating establishments there were already non-smoking -— but that wasn’t enough......the whiners insisted EVERY establishment had to be that way.

You know I sympathize with your situation, but the selfishness of some people is getting down right out of hand. As the example of D.C. proves.

What about the choice of the owner who has put in the money and time to get a business going and chooses to cater to a certain clientele? Do you really have the right to tell him his clientele has to change? Are you next going to tell the seafood restaurant owner he has to change his menu because there are people allergic to seafood?

Where and when is this nonsense going to stop?
