    Re: New smoking restrictions in Washington. Oh boy!

    I'm sorry the issue here is not money or health of smokers or nonsmokers. It isn't taxes or money saved to buy other things. If it was they would simply outlaw cigarettes. The issue is the government once again telling people what they can and cannot do. How long will it be before someone hits on something the rest of us enjoy doing. Sunbathers will be told they cannot get a tan because it is bad for your skin, or you cannot fry foods any more because it raises cholesterol. I saw on a news report the other day that said hot dogs are better for you than chicken. Does that mean we are all going to be forced to eat hot dogs by legislation. PEOPLE we need to wake up. It is time we took the Government pacifier out of our mouths and told the politicians to leave us alone. There is nothing wrong with telling people this is bad or that is bad. But government crosses the line when they pass laws that limit freedom...
