How much could be saved if smokers switched to vaping?



A lot. There was a huge anti-vape crusade a few years ago because people couldn't tell the difference. Remember "popcorn lung?"


I still can't believe how they outlawed flavored vapes. Want to quit? Try this stale awful fake tobacco smoke option, because a mango juul pod sold behind the counter with an ID check that is regularly tested by police is too tempting for the youth who are still smoking and vaping anyhow. Meanwhile you have blueberry vodka in arms reach at the grocery store. Bud light seltzer in attractive summer packaging in every fruity tutti flavor next to the 7 up at the gas station. It's all a bullshit farce and really goes to show how leveraged our lawmakers are in companies like Altria.


It blew my mind to see that there's an alcoholic version of SunnyD (US orange drink targeted toward children). At this point, I would no longer be surprised to see alcoholic Kool-Aid next.
