Everybody has a right to a safe work place, OSHA has regulations for business for every occupation. Over regulation from Government means loss of jobs and business bankruptcy. We have mandatory break rooms away from work place, rest areas with beds and private restrooms. Over regulation in NY will mean less revenue and increased taxes.
This is a legal substance, lets keep it that way or abolish it. I forgot we need the tax money for more regulation.......
Yet I firmly believe that it is a business owner's choice weather to allow smoking or not. The government has no authority to make the decision for the business owner.
We as consumers have the right to not do business with an establishment that allows smoking. I personally will not eat in a resteraunt that does not have clearly differentiated smoking/non-smoking sections. This is my choice. The same applies to smokers - they don't have to do business with someone that does not allow smoking.
No it isn't. Presumably if this fool wanted to be a coal miner she would be complaining that she had no idea the whole place would be so dusty.
If you don't like smoky bars don't work in them. Feel free to open your own no smoking bar and good luck to you.
This is as far as I could read (Yes it is the first sentence). Please find for me the article or amendment in the Constitution which enumerates the right to the job you want under the conditions you want. If you can't handle second hand smoke DON'T WORK AT A BAR YOU BLEEPING IDIOT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Ok, I feel better now.
Very few musicians are non-smokers.
Bar and restaurant employes are forced to inhale tobacco smoke every day to keep their jobs.
Such irrationality. The employee is free to leave. No person is pointing a gun to his head or threatening the employee or holding the employee hostage.
Clean indoor air is a basic right to which all workers should be entitled. Let's hope City Council Speaker Gifford Miller (D-Manhattan) backs Bloomberg and supports the Smoke-Free Workplace Act of 2002 for the health of all New Yorkers.
They are entitled to not work for any employer. No employer holds his or her employees hostage. Which is what the above irrational author implies. Politicians and bureaucrats have fraudulently usurped private property rights.
Juxtaposition:
The working-class man has a plan. While his work contributes to his prosperity and benefits society, he wants more prosperity and knows that in order to gain more prosperity for himself he must increase his benefit to society. He is one of the somewhat rare men and women that create a business plan. His plan is to create jobs, for he can't do all the work of the business himself.
His business plan when put into action will create jobs which will increase his employees' prosperity and with all those workers injecting more benefits into the marketplace it enables a more prosperous society.
BUT, there's a problem. Despite the man's honorable business plan that strives to gain more for himself and inject more benefits into society, government -- politicians and bureaucrats -- insist that the man use the government's plan.
The government's plan is overlaid on the businessman's plan and forces regulations, taxes and fees on the businessman's business plan. The government's overlay plan diminishes the businessman's goal of creating more jobs and injecting more values into society for which he is rightfully compensated with increased prosperity for himself.
Politicians and bureaucrats literally become parasites surviving off those that create prosperity and well-being for themselves, others and society. Working-class citizens -- from high-risk entrepreneurs to laborers to scientists to farmers -- literally become the host for government parasites.
The mob is growing increasingly restless and the politicians and bureaucrats magician-like illusions -- aided by a complicit media and academics -- are fast being cast aside by the light of fully integrated honesty.
