As a result, the survey determined that 29.7 percent of high school students are current users of a tobacco product.Almost 30% of students...sad.

This is troubling. With more and more young people eschewing cigarettes in favor of vaping, how are all those programs funded by tobacco taxes going to survive?
Think of the children!

And about 20% of all freepers buy into the garbage you peddle. Even sadder.
By the way, it is referred to as a "tobacco" product. If I vape 0% nicotine liquid, what makes it a "tobacco" product? The GRAS flavorings (found just about everywhere)? The propylene glycol (found in air fresheners, toothpaste, eye drops, inhalers, and many food products)? Given that these are the only two ingredients used, please select either the flavorings, or the glycol.
For that matter, even with nicotine, why is it referred to as a tobacco product? Why not, "a tomato product"? Or, "an eggplant product"?

Yes.
It is truly sad that someone came up with a product to help people quit cigarettes that is so effective that even adolescents with their low willpower and lack of discipline can now quit.
I can see how some people would be saddened by that.
A whole customer base fading away, and with no government mandate.
Evil products, evil capitalism, Yada Yada yada.

Just watched a movie last night with George Raft where he and another actor were talking and smoking in an office building. Also remember a couple of girls in high school, who wanted to lose weight, only had a popsicle for lunch, and no one cared. Freedom was wonderful while we had it
