      The most common justification for taxes on tabacoo products is that they’re bad for the health of the general public, and the same goes for e-smoking.

      This is only semi-related but I dislike e-smoking more than cigs, mainly cuz people that vape seem to think nobody is bothered by it and sometimes just straight up do it in public buildings, smokers atleast are selfaware and at the very least step away from people when they need a puff from the good’ol cancer stick

        In my experience smokers are more careless than vapers. Also cigarette smoke triggers my asthma while someone vaping propyleneglycol does not.

        You can watch as handfuls of people vape their shit as soon as a plane lands now. It’s insane

        EDIT: people inside the plane

      Because they not just bad for peoples health, they are also a nemesis of the environment.
