    My only worry is that once they start regulating things, they’ll fuck up non disposables too somehow. Like they did with the max nicotine level and the tank capacity.

      It’s really confusing. I swear they all used to be reusable with refill bottles, then at some point they just changed to disposable.

      Honestly, you would think it would be easy to push refillables… like that would sell just fine. My suspicion is, like ink printers, they don’t want people using other liquids.

      That would be the concern. The “for the children” argument is often how governments open the door; after they establish a precedent (disposables are bad) they can start scaling up to other aspects using the same argument.

      “Children are buying vape stuff in pretty colors!” “Children like the pretty vapor!” Etc.
