Smoking bans have worked, despite vehement protests from those addicted to
tobacco, wherever they have been enacted.  In Ireland, a smoking ban was
enacted three years ago and the pubs and restaurants seem to thrive.

While I understand that smokers perceive that there is a right to spread
carcinogens, the smoking ban is a health change.

We legislated the "rights" of private companies to pollute with the clean
air and clean water act.  It has benefited everyone.
