    the whole point of the FDA taking over cannabis is the same as nicotine vaping

    shut down the industry with over regulation that sounds positive on the surface

          Unlikely. The public and political agendas are just the opposite for the two substances: most people support the expansion of cannabis products and oppose the expansion of nicotine products.

            safe effective nicotine consumption were generally supported by the public too and was being ingrained in the culture in movies and tv

            now it is combustible cigarettes with alcohol being heavily promoted again as well in television and film

            if the US does not stop voting in senile past retirement age religious right leaning presidents who view any alteration in the citizen’s conscience it might not ever change or get better

                the synthetic nicotine being produce is done with green chemistry meaning no heavy metals used in synthesis

                with the nicotine being lab made no ground pollutants such as lead and other heavy metals are present just like fake vanilla extract which most seasoning coming from India with polluted soil

                also less soil less environmental impact

                the ingredients have gotten safer over time as well also leading to changes in other industries

                hugely better product both health and environmental and all around

                not to mention not have the ill effects of second hand smoke

                my own lung capacity was around 80% and dropping during the years was consuming combustible nicotine and cannabis products but now is above 90% had my lungs checked by a doctor

                lightyears healthier

        no it has not been a failure

        the government was able to shut down most of the vape companies

        some of them were very up to code being made in clean rooms good enough to make pharmaceuticals

        now we have big tobacco vapes mixed in with shoddy products

        have you talked to industry leaders such as business owners of some of these vape companies?

        nicotine and cannabis industry is in shambles due to bad policies and laws

        no wonder look at the right leaning conservatives that keep getting voted in with the latest one having a prosecutor as a vice

        cannabis being rescheduled and not legalized is a trojan horse designed to make the people feel complacent and happy with only extreme regulation and the disappearance of sustainable, innovative products being the end result
