SHEPHERD: PB Tax Collector Gannon: "There's No Smoking in this Building"  

​Palm Beach County Tax Collector Anne Gannon would like to charge us all with smoking. Gannon announced yesterday that she is going to stop hiring anybody who "regularly uses tobacco products" for jobs with the tax collector's office. Juice finds itself in the itchy position of agreeing with that irrepressible Republican Sid Dinnerstein on this one, who was quoted yesterday in the Sun-Sentinel:

"If you can pick on people because they smoke, you can pick on people because they eat fatty foods. ... You can go down a very long list of telling people how they should live their lives." . . .

Thanks, Anne. But you know what you can do with your job?
