Austerity & Sharp Rise in Suicide Rates (US & Europe)

[Warpy]

6. I've seen enough people taper down and quit using e cigs to agree with you.

Cigarettes are different, they're highly addictive and proven killers. They contribute to lost productivity, disability, and years of torture from COPD, one of the worst ways to die I can think of. I watched my mother die that way.

Once cannabis is legal (and it's coming), poor folks will have much better comfort than the illusory one of tobacco, which does nothing but calm the cravings from the last cigarette.

I know you don't like tobacco taxes but it's a public health thing.
