It's even worse than vape pen. Its pretty popular around Yurop in recent years, dunno if it's big in America. Kinda started fading away tho, since people mostly used it cos you could act like a cunt and smoke it in bars/restaurants/nalls/etc. It made by the big tobacco companies and they sell you the ""cigarettes"" you put inside so they are still making money from the dying tobacco market.
Anyway, the way it works, you insert this tiny cigarette inside of it, it heats it somehow, but doesnt burn it and you just smoke it like a normal cigarette. You still get the nicotine hit, but it tastes like asshole. The only real plus I found is that it basically leaves no smoking smell wherever you are, but aside for that it's pure garbage. It costs the same as a vape pen and you still need to buy those special cigarettes that coast the same as a regular pack

It's an electronic cigarette made by Philip Morris, the international tobacco giant. It supposedly is more like real cigarette than vaping since it actually burns a tiny bits of tobacco pushed in from the cartridge instead of vaporizing tobacco juice. Philip Morris claims it's less danger to health than traditional cigarettes, but there is very little scientific evidence to support this notion of decreased harm.

>> No.13721940

>>13721882
Guess who owns Juul (Philip Morris).

JTI (Benson & Hedges) has extensive e-cigarette product lineup overseas (especially Japan), but hasn't introduced them to the U.S. because of the legal and regulatory uncertainties around tobacco vaping i.e. they won't launch vapes here until FDA clarifies the rules and their lawyers are absolutely sure this won't open them up to another multi-billion dollar class action lawsuit.

Also, there's no evidence of this. There's been some acute responses to bad additives (popcorn lung once to diacetyl, the EVALI outbreak due to use of Vitamin E Acetate, "Honey Cut", used to thin out THC oil and hide that it's well below normal strength), but the most common ingredients (Propylene Glycol [a common vaporized medicine carrier fluid], Vegetable Glycerin) are generally bioneutral.

It isn't consistent. They want to levy a higher tax rate on nicotine vapes than is on cigarettes. The two bills banning all flavor vapes whatsover, menthol cigarettes, and a sin tax on all nicotine in any form just passed in the House this week. It is doubtful it will pass in this form in the Senate, but you never know. It is a bunch of bad legislation that only aims to raise tax burdens on regular people and encourage smoking over smoking cessation. Contrary to science. Contrary to the growing popular notion that regular Americans pay too much and the rich pay too little into the system.

banning a product is a very strange way to increase tax revenue. stopping people from becoming addicted to (((products))) is an obvious public health agenda since addiction is the second most prevalent mental health issue. "Consistent... huh??" the word you should be contesting obstinately is "children whaaaat?" because that was actually misused. young adults getting suckered into a lifetime of addiction by candy flavoring. prohibiting candy flavors in all tobacco products is consistent. it may be healthier to vape than smoke but if you have to vape nicotine of menthol flavored gel and it stops X% of other young people from getting hooked then it is unfortunate for you that the government gets to make that call.

We live in a strange world. On one hand we're told we have these freedoms and responsibilities, then on the other we're still being nannied. They should raise the voting age back to 21 if young people can be so easily influenced. Oh wait, that's what they want.

Like alcohol? That comes in many candy flavors, too. What about sugar? The most addictive drug, and the cause of the childhood obesity and lifelong adult obesity epidemic. They give subsidies to that and oftentimes give it away to kids for free. Guess the government gets to make that call, too. Nicotine vaping is not tobacco. Deadly THC cut with vitamin E acetate is not nicotine vaping. Taxes won't deter young adults. Bans won't deter youths, but will intice them. I think a nicotine tax on non-tobacco products is to recapture tax revenue from former-smoker adults. The products have yet to harm anyone after 20-some years. In fact, hundreds of thousands of deaths are prevented by smokers switching to vaping. At odds with the public health, a moral panic was manufactured because the state coffers were running dry. Tobacco use was a huge source of revenue. But they're doing it for the children. Such a noble cause!

I'm sure to you that it feels cathartic to write these out but they're both incorrect. making flavors of a product unavailable is not going to revive the speakeasy.
>to recapture tax revenue from former-smoker adults
that's conceivably true but irrelevant to any point I've made at any point during our exchange. getting rid of grape soda tobacco extract isn't a taxation policy. if you want to arch your back and say every prospective sin tax item should be dealt with equally that's fine but again it is irrelevant to my point of consistent treatment between flavored smokes and vapes.
