Is it fair that those who work should be saddled with those who choose to be a leach on society, when all they have to do is get a job and stop being lazy?

Maybe we should let local governments decide this.

Keep your smoke the hell outta my face, that's all I ask. But remember I have a right to go to my favorite restaurants, movies, theaters, bars, and yes, work place, and STILL have the right to say "keep your smoke the hell outta my face."

We were doing well, IMO, with the segregated smoking areas (as long as they were truly separated, not just an area with no substantial air barriers.) But certain SMOKERS weren't good enough with that, whining about "separate but equal" crap. Too bad, because the vast majority of non-smokers I know were also perfectly content with smoking areas. The problem is, if SMOKERS aren't content with smoking areas, then the answer is still "keep your smoke the hell outta my face." Live with your own decisions, do not expect me to.
