Many cities in the United States and some places in Europe are passing smoking bans in restaurants, bars, theaters, and other "public" places.

Proponents of these laws claim they protect public health and keep people from being forced to inhale secondhand smoke. Critics claim the laws go too far, unfairly restricting the rights of property owners and placing a burden on smokers.

What about this idea as a compromise? The owners of restaurants, pubs, and theaters can decide if they want to permit smoking or not. If they choose to allow smoking, they must put a large sign on all entrances stating "THIS ESTABLISHMENT PERMITS SMOKING. SECONDHAND SMOKE IS DANGEROUS TO YOUR HEALTH." They must also have all new employees sign a form acknowleging that they choose to work in an environment with tobacco smoke.

This way, no one is forced to visit or work in a smoke-filled place. They can see the sign on the door, and make their own decision if they want to take the health risk.

The Hezbo-Nazis have stated that their goal is to kill Jews and destroy Isreal. Are the Israeli people supposed to just let it happen? Why should they not defend themselves.

Or is it a global clash between Western (predominantly Christian) and Middle-Eastern (predominantly Islamic) powers, in which Israel (predominantly Jewish) is at the front line?

We live in a society where you get paid what you are worth, if you are worth 5.15 an hour that what you should get paid, if you dont like that then freaking educate yourself. For all of you that want minimum wage to go up, why dont we just pay everyone in the whole freaking country the same annual salary, janitors to CEO's, heck even people on wlefare, would that make you happy, then noone would get their feelings hurt that they cannot use their dang brains and do better for themselves.

Compare and contrast the treatment of nazi Germany to the Jews when, they were considered sub-humans and were ordered to leave. Compare this to the treatment of Nazi Israel to the Palestinians and Lebanese today. Will the American life line finally come to end.

I've recently noticed the new conspiracy theory that Hezbollah bombed themselves in order to make Isreal look bad to the rest of the world. I'd like to know if there is any basis for this(links, facts?) or if they only believe this because republican political leaders are saying it.(so no quotes from Michelle Malkin) I call it a republican conspiracy theory because I've only seen republicans say this so far.

BTW- I'm fully aware that Hezbollah was sending missles from civilian areas in Qana and the civilians were warned to leave.. That is a separate issue.

With the economic growth of India and the increasing economic stability of China and Russia is it not time for Europe to unite under one banner to increase the enconomic and political power of the continent that once ruled the world? Or is the time of european supremacy over? If so should we turn to Russia, India, China or the US as the 'leaders of the free world'? (-a title that the US had apointed themselves for the last fifty years.)
