They have to keep alternatives reasonable available, like vaping. But no, they make it so expensive that many people went back to smoking tobacco instead of going the other way and downdose on nicotine & understand that they simply don’t need either.
Vaping is banned in Singapore. You still see some people illegally possessing and vaping though.
What in cigarettes was causing heart attacks? Nicotine?
Yeah, nicotine is a vasoconstrictor. Smaller blood vessels = higher blood pressure and higher risk of heart attacks and stroke.
I’ve been using the nicotine pouches and there’s only addiction warning labels on them. But the whole time I’m thinking, I’m pretty certain nicotine isn’t good for the heart…
recall drama when they banned smoking in elevators. should be banned in public spaces. smoked when younger. now it just stinks. even outdoors. read big tobacco is diversifying into foods that are addictive.
This is the way.
Yes because prohibition works…
You seem to be using the US as an example. Countless other countries have banned various drugs quite successfully. Singapore being just one of them.
Oh yes, let’s all adopt the magical laws of Singapore and start beating people with sticks and HANG THEM for drugs.
Fucking ludicrous, how the fuck could you speak like Singapore’s draconian laws are a good thing and they’ve ‘successfully’ banned drugs. By human subjugation.
Ok, in my defense, I was not aware of the drug laws in Singapore. That was a really really really bad example. Like holy shit they have the death penalty for 500 grams of weed WTF. And you’re presumed guilty just for being around a location where drugs have been used. Yeah I agree that’s madness.
Nice, love the realisation. Good man
Not really a direct parallel considering you can’t exactly grow your own tobacco. Tobacco also isn’t sold for any other purpose, unlike barley.
Lol what? You %100 can grow your own tobacco. And there is a ton of research being done using nicotine for Alzheimer’s and dementia.
