[Vision2020] Public Smoking

[Mike Deleve]

Man do I wish I had a "9 to 5" schedule. I have spent many an evening in bars, taverns (hmmm,  maybe I should reword that) and restaurants. In this trade, you go when you're called. The point is, the simplistic answer is not realistic. I don't know what the answer is. Yes Kai, it was dismissive, and you still own the straw man, my answer is based in reality. I'm not going to give you a business lesson on the daily activities in a bar or restaurant, I'll just leave it as far more people visit on a daily basis than you might imagine.

 Personally though, I think controlling smoking at the city level is a stupid, overreaching idea. No continuity with the rest of Idaho will lead to unnecessary costs and revenue losses as the smokers frequent other locales.

   I actually excpected an answer like Mike's.
   
  So, how often are "others" in a bar during the bar's "operating hours"? They don't operate on a "9-5" schedule.
  Most, if not all, of the maintainance, repairs and deliveries are made while the joint is closed.
  So, it would seem that Mike's response is the true "straw man".
   
  There was nothing dismissive, people were whining about those who are employed at smoking establishments. I made a reasonable suggestion.
