Lynda Camacho is voicing the typical fictional doomsday theory that if a proposed smoking ban gets passed in her local area that her bar was going to lose business. However, she has nothing to support this baseless fear, while it has been shown throughout the country that when local or statewide smokefree ordinances are passed, there is little if any financial impact on the bars business. If anything, the sales tax data indicate an increase in business after a short period of time.
