List, As a pro-choice nonsmoker I am personally conflicted on this issue. Does anyone know where I can find documentation on the economic impact of smoking bans in areas where part of the metro area go non smoking and other parts do not? I am curious about the economic impact for business owners, and the sales taxes as well.
For example -- I have heard evidence points to the restaurants in Superior WI benefiting from the Duluth smoking ban, a situation with economic implications the eventually resulted in scaling back the scope of the ban.
