Question: Do smokers have a right to smoke when it pollutes the air for them selves or .
Answer: I believe that in restaurants there should be a non-smoking policy all together, due to the fact that even when I am eating, smoke in the environment makes the food taste bad. I do however think smoking should not be outlawed, I just personally think it should be contained to a restricted room in public places and only in the car or in your own personal home.

Question: Should non-smokers have to pay the medical expenses of smokers?.
Answer: Yes I do believe that non-smokers should pay the medical expenses for smokers. I have been working in the funeral industry since I have been 13 y/o. I have buried many people that have had lung cancer yet never smoked a day in their life, and yes I have buried the pack a day people that suffered from lung cancer for years before dieing. I believe that cancer to a certain extent is predisposed and have some human genetic traits that factor in. Smoking doesn't help and does cause cancer, however there are people that smoked since they were 14 and died at a nice old age in there 80's and never had cancer. So I believe that if a law were created for non-smokers to not have to pay for smoker's medical expenses it would be a great injustice.
