What are people’s thoughts here? I could understand removing all the lolly flavours and regulating like other tobacco products. I am an ex-smoker but I personally feel like this is govt over-reach. That might be an out-dated mindset of my time & generation (genX), however. So I’m interested to get some insight into how the broader population view this issue, particularly the younger generations, in both an overall opinion, but also in regards to such govt controls of recreational substances vs an individual’s right of freedom to choose.

    A bunch of businesses will basically be shut down because of this … they can’t exactly pivot to something else

    It’s a damn shame too - I don’t know what we’ll do without all those businesses built around exploiting drug addicts

        Not exactly, as they won’t be promoting the vapes as they’ll be plainly packaged and they’ll be heavily regulated. They will still profit but not encouraging it
