A new study done by the RAND Corporation, Congressional Budget Office, University of Wisconsin, and Stanford University, finds no evidence that heart attack mortality rates decrease with the implementation of smoking bans.

Ban-happy legislators across the globe will tend to keep ignoring the truth just as they have been doing for decades. Change will not come without force. Join the fight.
