vaping is being taking up by "cool" kids, not being used to quit tobacco.
Vaping is not free of risks.
But since mortally dangerous cigarettes, killing 100Ks per year for decades in the USA, are legal, are untouchable thanks to govt protection purchased by BigTobacco, vaping is safe from govt regulations.
Nicotine in tobacco, like marijuana, officially has no medical use, but guess which one is DEA Schedule I and which is 100% legal. btw, Anslinger went after mj, with acquiescence from the Feds, because the black and "Mexican" users back in the 1930s had to be suppressed, preferably by jailing.
It was amazing to hear Obama tell Maron that the function of the police was to keep blacks corralled, suppressed in ghettos.
