Oy!
Come Spring 2003, there will be no more smoking in ANY bar, restaurant, workplace, well hell, basically anywhere in NYC. Existing cigar bars, and some outside cafe's will be allowed.
Can you believe this crap? I know for a fact Bloomberg smokes, he's got a hefty tooth for robusto's, and even used to smoke in the Bloomberg offices before he became mayor. His attitude is, "You can smoke in your home, you can smoke outside, but you can't smoke in any resaurant in NYC'.
So I was thinkin, doesn't this tend to really push the rights of smokers? We're all adults for the most part that smoke in bars, etc.. Shouldn't it be up to the owner and not the government to make that call? I really don't understand how these types of laws can be pushed through without anyone fighting it.
Grrr
