It's not really a crime to tell them how to run it. OSHA comes in and tells restaurants what to do as far as food handling goes. Although, if you ever go to Paris, the best restaurants usually have a sleeping dog somewhere on the premises. ;p

I had to laugh at an anti who used the "argument" of restaurants have to cook their meats to a certain temperature to try to defend a smoking ban.
Apparently that Green Acres "Eb" never had the opportunity to enjoy the pleasures of sushi or carpaccio.
A little too exotic for the anti "fine dining is the the Burger King/McDonald's/Wendy's drive thru" milquetoast palate.

Protecting the employee and employees have no choice where they work is such a fraud.

Employees do not suddenly become to dumb and stupid to think for themselves whether to accept or refuse any employment just because the public at large says so.
Protecting employees is a farce/fraud for an anti smoking agenda.

<quoted text>isn't it interesting that the ODH health codes for building structure, wiring, sewer, refrigeration, food handling, pest control, sewage, to protect the public who is not forced to enter and enjoy was not voted on by the public? Just think of all of those years prior to issue 5 ...I'm surprised anyone lived according to the anti smoking fraud

Following that logic, I guess you'd like to repeal the Federal Coal Mine Health and Safety Act of 1969 --- those miners knew that "black lung" was part of the deal with coal mining. Unless they were "too dumb and stupid to think for themselves whether to accept or refuse any employment."
Of course, maybe they had families to feed and didn't have too many employment opportunities, but that's no excuse for "nanny state" laws like the Coal Act, right?

<quoted text> The simple fact they have famlies to feed is no excuse. They made a choice, a choice to work in coal mines where they knew they had a big chance of getting black lung.(if they didn't get killed on the job some other way) Now they have the audacity to demand and recive special medical care. Not only that, but they get to draw money from some 'nanny state' gov agency that pays them for having black lung. O the shame of it all.<;~(
