why stop at an indoor smoking ban? let’s just ban cigarettes. and drinking. and complex carbs. let’s go ahead and make exercise mandatory. and while we’re at it yes, actually, let’s eradicate private healthcare and manage it all centrally.

Ok, I’ll give you a serious answer too. I think the NAP argument is a good one. You’re having a minority force terrible air and smelling clothes and negative health consequences on everyone else.

one can use the public health argument to justify everything from altering the work week to forcing vaccinations on newborn children. it *has* been used to justify sterilizing people. collectivism has no bottom.
