Businesses lobbying against anti-smoking laws are really short-sighted, in my view. How do they know that those laws will actually hurt their business? With the public's awareness rising and the number of smokers dwindling, how do they know that "smoking allowed" isn't actually hurting business by turning away the rising number of clients who'd prefer a smoke free venue?

Before the smoking ban in NYC, many venue owners were afraid that they'd go bankrupt from the anticipated drop in patronage. Instead, three years later, I bet neither of them would allow smoking even if the ban was lifted -- in fear of losing the patrons who appreciate the cleaner air. Why should casinos be any different?
