I believe a business is a business, and it should be run by the owners of the business - not the government.

I believe people have a right to smoke, fart, pick their noses/butts/scabs, where ever they want - as long as I don't have to see it or smell it. If there were a restaurant/bar that allowed people to spit their tobacco on the floor I wouldn't go to that restaurant. It would be up to the restaurant owner to decide whether he's making enough money from the tobacco chewers to keep his business alive.
