probably because it’s easier to make people not start smoking than make people stop smoking. 2008 people are below 18, so most of them probably haven’t started
I’m not saying I’m against the ban - I actually am for it. I’m just saying that if it was good enough for older people to make an informed decision, why are we denying only the younger ones that right.
If we truly wanted to fix things, we should ban it for everybody. Not at some arbitrary age cut-off.
Last I checked, secondary smoke does not respect age limits.
I like that they’re trying to kill off smoking.
I don’t like this ageist bullshit.
Why don’t they just set a timeline of 5 years and all tobacco sales are prohibited after that. You’ve got 5 years to quit if you smoke.
That solves even more of the problem and isn’t ageist bullshit.
My biggest issue is them labeling vaping as a tobacco product. While tobacco contains nicotine, it’s like saying Red Bull is coffee.

2008 people are already turning 18 this year.
Sorry to be the bearer of bad news.
It’s the same reason that Age Gating is popping up all over the world.
It’s because fuck young people, that’s why. I got mine, I don’t care about you.
Yeah they’re fucking over young people by (checks notes) extending their life expectancy?

No age rating is a measure of control and surveillance. They force you to supply more info, so authorities can track people better when they want to.
Well, that’s just an added bonus. Killing two birds with one stone and all.
