the funny thing is that all these vape horror stories are entirely related to trying to control situations by banning things

isn't this good?

one of the purposes of vaping is to get the people that are addicted to real cigarettes to switch. Having all of these exotic flavors make it seem like a candy and will likely attract younger people and become a gateway to worse things.

Ive been using a Juul for a month now and I think making them stop selling the flavored ones was a mistake. The off brands are not as high quality and probably not tested as well either. I was getting headaches and nausea from them but the Juul brand ones never do that

"Vape lung" wasn't a thing when 18-year-olds could buy cherry-flavored vape at walmart.

I don't doubt that it makes nicotine products more accessible, but I think this is more pushback against declining tobacco sales. Juul is owned by Altria, aka Phillip Morris, so that segment is doing just fine (and making oodles of money since Juul pods are propriety)... it's the "some assembly required" vapes and standalone juice formulations that are being targeted.

not going to stand in front of the ones who want to lower life expectancy. but government shouldn't intervene when people want to smoke those things.

Yeah they cant touch medical marijuana vapes. Perdue Pharma murdered 218,000 people since 2000 by lying about the safety of Oxycontin and I don't see a ban on opiods. I'll fucking fight for this one.

Suboxone is flavored, tastes like oranges, and the clinic system is designed to literally not help people get clean. Doctors at clinics are instructed to not encourage people to wean down so they keep coming back and get to keep getting that sweet insurance money.

To keep kids from using it.

Which, of course, just means kids stealing the vaporizers and getting fucked over by vape juice out of the back of someone's car, or boiled down from discarded cigarette butts and flavor shots and then sold out of the back of a car.

This reminds me of the California Uber topic.

Big Tobacco is the Taxi Companies
Vape brands are Uber/Lyft

Taxi companies & Tobacco companies refuse to innovate & adapt to changing markets and they demand legislation to ban or limit the competition.
