So did the central committee of the communist labor syndicate force the noble entrepreneur to install this filtration system through collective bargaining? Or is this the kind of air purification installation the state politburo should add to the already overburdensome yoke of regulations under which hardworking small business owners bravely struggle to generate their meager mom-and-pop profit margin? Why should restauranteurs bow to inflationary pressure to charge me more for their wares in order to assume the accountability that should fall on individual smokers?
And what about all those chumps who laid out hard-earned income to build bomb shelters right before big government saddled the world with the meddlesome, big-brother imposition of nuclear disarmament? And me, I got my car tuned up beFORE the EPA stuck us with emissions controls!
