Re: Am I the only non-smoker who thinks \"smoking bans\" are a bunch of BS?
I'm kind of torn about smoking bans. On one hand, I feel bad for smokers: I live in a cold climate and seeing smokers huddled outside is kind of pathetic. I also understand freedom of association arguments and arguments that the market can decide on a good mix of smoking and non-smoking establishments. On the other hand, if any other airborne pollutant besides cigarette smoke were present, OSHA would require workers to wear a respirator or breathing aparatus. I think those kind of protections are good for workers and patrons.
