Time To Wake Up Michigan!
The smoking ban debate has reached the Michigan State House once again. It's time for the Neanderthals to wake up and make a wise choice for the people of Michigan and stand up for our health and well-being. I'm tired of hearing how a smoking ban would hurt the economy and how bars and restaurants would lose business. With the way the economy stands as it is, and with the upcoming raise in taxes on cigarettes, who can afford to smoke anyway?

I strongly believe that anyone that is a smoker is slowly committing suicide. I am a non smoker and avoid all bars that allow smoking. I strongly oppose the bill as it strips us of our freedom. It should be the choice of the business owner if he wants smoking on his property or not. While I do not like smoking I have the choice to avoid these businesses that allow smoking. I do not want the government making this choice for me.
Banning smoking in public eateries and bars strips us of our freedom? It's possibly one of the only smart moves our government it making. Sure, you can avoid those places that allow smoking, but does that make it fair? So if one of my favorite restaurants allows smoking, I should have to avoid it because I am sickened by second hand smoke? And don't even mention the non smoking sections, since they are basically in the same area and the smoke just lingers.
So, based on your point of view, smokers should have more rights then non smokers?
I'm with DetroitBazaar on this one!
It's only a matter of time before MI will be smoke free!
