That dipshit was so close to getting it, yet so far.

Menthol cigarette advertising was/is targeted heavily to black people. It’s possible that banning menthol will give people the nudge they need to quit, so it could end up helping black people more than average.

I still haven’t figured out how the FDA decided that flavored nicotine in vapes was, in any way, a valid marketing concept. I get allowing it for cessation and limiting it to unflavored, but to intentionally put it in a product as a feature? (yes, I’m aware companies put caffeine in products, and I do drink those products - as an addictive substance, I’m okay with prohibiting it).

At least someone can argue that caffeine serves a purpose. If you want to stay wired, there ya go, and it isn’t nearly as addictive as nicotine. You’re right about flavored vapes, though. That’s some bullshit.
