French government beginning to outlaw things it deems as unhealthy. This is a direct result of socialized medicine. Vote for Hillary, you asswipes.

  • Give non-smokers an Inch, they'll TAKE a mile.

    The same type of ban was imposed on alcohol, here in America, and bred a profitable black-market & mafia.

    Special police units were formed, at tax-payers expense. Much like America's DEA, which does little, if anything, to slow the smuggling of drugs.

    Another unforseen event, is a massive tax revenue loss amounting to Billions per month.

    What will the government tax in its stead?

    Gas, food, or additional alcohol taxes? Use your imagination.

  • Of course the non smokers like this. They fail to see the big picture though. More freedom lost, business owners losing the right to make decisions in regards to their own property. Its all very sad. The owner should have the right to chose. Let the non smokers go to non smoking businesses and smokers go to the ones that allow it. Everyone is happy. But I guess its not the same unless they force everyone to do it. This world is getting pathitic and its adverage person is scared of everything.

  • I was in France and they still smoke! It is not enforced!

  • romantic? i dont think so! ever been into a store where there is a pretty young girl next to you who smells like an ashtray?

  • Good for France!!!

  • The above, is the "mile" non-smokers will have before they're done. They'll not stop at 'indoor smoking bans'.

    It starts at a 'voluntary' program. Then, shifts to an imposition.

    Even indoor bans only, cause tax revenue loss.

    Then, the federal, state, county & local governments must replace enormous tax revenue losses by taxing smokers & non-smokers heavilly on something else [property tax - etc]. Smokers will save money. Non-smokers will make up the difference for lost revenues.

    Well done!
