    I agree completely. I don’t want anyone let alone young people getting addicted to nicotine, but a straight up ban isn’t gonna stop it. When I was a teen it was easy for me to get someone else to buy me smokes or booze or weed, just needed to pay a runners fee which was perfectly fine to me back then. Kids are dumb (so was I, no shade) they’re gonna do what makes them look cool and helps them to fit in with their peers.

    Idk what the answer is tbh, but straight up bans aren’t it. That’s just pushing it to the black market and taking away taxes.
