At this point there is zero logical reason that cigarettes aren’t banned. The only logical reasons are that the government likes the $40/pack tax more than Australians dying, or big tobacco donations… I am not advocating the ban of ciggies, it just makes zero sense to continue to go after vapes when turning a blind eye to the other ‘death maker’
or big tobacco donations
I don’t think the Labor party gets these anymore or they wouldn’t be go after vapes in the first place.
There are prescription vapes? 😯
Does ventolin count? :P
I don’t think you need a prescription for that anymore
:0
In Australia, yes.
They can be prescribed for Medicinal Cannabis and also to help quit smoking.
Pathetic, anything to protect big tobacco
Big tobacco are the same people selling those vapes. The bill is going to nip that revenue stream in the bud before it can mature.
They’re not though, in Australia. Most black macket vapes are coming from random Chinese companies. Almost all legal nicotine is coming from independant suppliers overseas who source it from Asian manufacturers. Vapes and related equipment are no different, SMOORE are probably the biggest manufacturer - https://en.smooretech.com/
I used to sell the shit before the government got overzealous with legislation and now everyone is back on the ciggies
All my mates gave up ciggies and got onto vapes, saved money smelt way better.
Now they’re all back on ciggies. The government are cunts either ban smoking outright or let the vapes in.
