We have the small circle with an e-cig and tobacco cig and the ban bar on the doors of the Wally World here in Ripley, WV. Something akin to the following:
Been on their doors for a good while now. Other places of business are using the same kind of decals in our area. If that is what a business desires, no problem, I can not vape while visiting them. I get twenty feet outside and away from a door, I'll vape all I want. Same way I treated smoking once it became banned. Except on medical campuses, I give about fifty feet of room on those due to oxygen & genuine medical concerns.
Think it is fair. If you do not like the way a business operates you can
not do business with them, and that too is fair. Businesses value consumers giving them money. Using that as consumers to advantage seems a way to ensure consumer desires are met. The same is happening regarding the vaping industry & shops, consumers are requesting certain aspects of vaping be certain ways. The business end of it has no choice but obliging, or they lose customer money.
Many think this alone will encourage self-regulation in vaping. To a large degree it does, continues doing so. Others seeking to create some idea of Utopian conformity desire governments to become involved, although it soon is clear a lot of that comes from Big Tobacco money. The government likes Big Tobacco money, Big Pharmaceutical money. The government regulating a consumer good is not needed when capitalism and the
fair market can attend to regulating itself. The only reason to involve government is ensuring the
free market can profit. Please note the distinction made in the two markets, one is indeed free and fair, the other is anything but free and in no regards is it fair.
