Ten year old joke in SF.
A German Businessman is touring the financial district with his hosts and remarks "you have the best dressed and looking prostitutes!"
He of course was referring to the ladies of the office forced outside for a smoke.
Back when I was a smoker, you could smoke just about anywhere you wanted to. There were some exceptions; you couldn't smoke if you were visiting someone in the hospital who had an oxygen tank next to them.
This was of course absurd. Non smokers had to suffer through all of this.
It seems to me that we could easily find a way to accommodate both groups of people - a break room with a smoke eater ventilation system for example.
I know plenty of people who don't smoke in own cars or even their own houses out of respect for others.
The Government is not needed to solve this issue.
