    Well Nicotine is highly addictive so it needs high taxes to compensate for the market failure.

    Probably the best solution is a nicotine tax that applies to all products. It could be based on the amount of nicotine being sold.

      Tax the shit out of it, it pisses me off cause I’m an addict but I understand it’s for the best.

      Stop banning flavours though, if I wanted gross tobacco flavours then I’d go back to smoking cigarettes. Let me have my peach flavoured juice ffs, and build and rewick my own coils instead of letting wasteful disposables run rampant.

      I dont wanna quit, I’ve tried 6+ times now and it’s fucking hard. If I can’t legally buy flavoured juice, then I’ll go to the black market to get my fix and then the government gets nothing except my health problems out of it.
