Also, a German firm tried to start an airline in 2006 that would allow smoking and it never launched due to low interest. It's a good example of people voting with their wallets to take a few-hour break from smoking to save money. --[[User:DinsdaleP|DinsdaleP]] 13:25, 23 July 2008 (EDT)

:Thanks for the example--it's pretty much why I think there don't need to be more restrictions, and why a rollback wouldn't be a bad thing. Businesses have already had the chance to see that being smoke-free doesn't hurt them financially; why would most of them revert at this point? Keep in mind that smoking also results in more costs to the business in terms of maintenance.
:I honestly think the marketplace will work to keep most businesses smoke-free at this point (as your example of the airline illustrates.) More government intervention just doesn't seem to be warranted or necessary. --[[User:Benp|Benp]] 15:56, 23 July 2008 (EDT)
