>>an assertion that nicotine addiction is, itself, a negative health consequence.
What are the negative health consequences? Lower incidence of Alzheimer’s and thus fewer Dem voters?
No one seems to get all bothered by nicotine patches or gum, but e-cigs are causing all kinds of concerns. It’s just another delivery method. I smoked for 45 years and have been vaping now for 2 1/2 years. No more cigarettes. I feel great and would never go back to smoking, but I am addicted to nicotine. Trying VERY slowly to cut back on the nicotine, but I’ll probably just keep vaping anyway.
