Sucks to be a smoker.

“Even marijuana” eh? I bet those dope dealers will certainly collect that increased tax and keep, like, meticulous records, yo!/s;)

Liberals. If they don’t like it, you can’t do it.

Ahh, yes, must tax out of existence those things that stop people from smoking cigarettes, because it looks evil.

Man, I love liberals, they are consistent in how moronic they are.

I’m waiting for the day when someone figures out how to sue these legislative bodies for discriminatory actions.

They lose tax money if people quit smoking cigarettes — $2.50 per pack — so more taxes are paid than on vape stuff at 5.75% sales tax.

I’ll make sure I smoke more that week for all those people who can’t!

DC Launches Anti-Smoking Campaign A Week Before Taxing Vape Shops Out Of Existence

I cannot understand why people are so anti-vaping for nicotine. To me, it’s about equivalent to switching to patches or gum, and they’re not all apesh*t crazy about that. Show me a study that says limited amounts of nicotine delivered cleanly are any worse to a body than caffeine is.

Good news for shops across the river in Virginia. Last time I checked, you could ride the metro, pick some up and be back in an hour.

Easy enough to get around.

You can buy the flavorings at the Flavorer’s Apprentice for a few bucks.

That amount keeps me vaping for 2-3 months. And of course, you can buy the batteries and vaporizers online as well.

Good job, DC. You just eliminated another source of revenue for yourselves.

Wow. I’m down to no more than one cigarette per day, thanks to vaping. I recently went 3 days without a cigarette. Eff you, anti-vaping nazis.

Are these the same people who take a bath is some eau (or spray it on heavily) and leave you on an elevator wheezing with tears in your eyes?

Damn them all to hell!

This is exactly the same as the business where they try to convince people to drive less and use electric cars.

So people drive less and use electric cars, and gas tax revenues fall.

So now they want us to pay for driving by the mile to make up the difference...
