What a totally corrupt loser.

Q ought to go pedal to the medal, and expose, imprison, and execute ALL of them, rather than fighting a losing battle of attrition in the shadows.

I just love Government. To counter smoking, they promoted nicotine patches, gum, clinics etc etc.....and then e-cigarettes.

That's right....inject nicotine straight into your system...and do it smoke free.

What a lot of cr**. Same MO as Opioids.

Twenty-two trillion dollars in debt and an invasion at our southern border and Cocaine Mitch is focused on taking action on teen smoking.

This is why nothing meaningful gets done on our real problems. Somewhere in this absurdity Mitch is getting a payoff.

“All the crap going on in the country and world and they’re worried about 20-year-olds smoking cigarettes. Frickin’ amazing.”

Actuarial tables and risk mitigation. Probably looking at risk of starting smoking at 21 rather than 18. This could result in lower insurance rates as well as reduced costs to medical providers.

Why not just ban it all together then?

Oh, right, they tax it to death.

Good question. At this point, his establishment machine may not be able to defend him like it did against Bevin.
