That's not what I'm saying, Mr. Bob Dole. As I stated in my first post, the market should decide. The smoker's "rights" argument, however, just doesn't make a lot of sense to me because the smoker adversely affects those around him, majority rules, and the majority should be able to kick that smoker's ass. On the other hand, a person who owns a business should be allowed to say whether or not smoking should be allowed in his establishment and should be free to kick the non-smoker's ass.

Then, the government should pay reparations to all of us smokers and ex-smokers for spending billions of tax dollars on tobacco subsidies for the past 200 years. Problem solved.
