[Mpls] Smoking ban participation

[Dan]

Add up the costs those addictions to society impose on the rest of us and
not only will costs and taxes not go up but their reduced use, we will
witness fewer drunk drivers and chemical-related assaults (about 98% of
assaults are driven by drug use - including the drug of choice for most
people family budget-busting, and on and on.

Actually, I predict that drunk driving will increase as a result of the city
and county smoking bans. People who used to walk, bicycle, or hop public
transit to a bar will now be getting in their cars and driving further to
get to places which are still allowed to accomodate their preference.
