Premise 1: Smoking rooms should be set up in workplaces to allow people to smoke indoors.It has been argued that setting aside rooms for smokers does not mean that the harmful effects of smoking are limited to smokers alone (Rugby, 1989). This position contends that most public buildings are air conditioned and this means that any harmful tobacco smoke that is produced in one room will spread to other rooms through the air conditioning system. It is also claimed that because we rightfully have a universal health insurance system in this country, the costs of treating tobacco related illnesses are shared by all the community, smokers and non-smokers alike. These illnesses, so this argument goes, create a terrible and expensive burden on our health system. It is maintained that they increase the overall cost of medical services and use up scarce medical resources. However, as Jane Black, the spokesperson for Smokers for a Democratic Society, explains forbidding smokers from pursuing their habit in public places is an infringement of their democratic rights and is discriminatory.(The Age 18.6.93). Moreover, banning smoking in all public places is another example of the way the government uses health and safety issues as a cover for introducing increasingly tight control over people's lives. Furthermore, public buildings are places where all members of the community should have equal access. In addition, people should be free to do what they like so long as it does not harm other citizens.Premise 2: Smoking rooms should not be set up in workplaces to allow people to smoke indoors.
