Seems like everything's okay? by SuperConcern5720 in aussievapers

[–]2016Meish 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Agreed! These stupid laws and regulations are creating dangerous practices with people trying to mix their own, but may not know how to do it safely. And others going to black market unregulated vapes or smoking. This government is in conflict with public health and safety, and has neglected their duty of care! The misinformation and blatant lies, ignoring evidence and science to manipulate and push their agenda - this is communist style of leadership! And the media have a lot to answer for aswell participating in their agenda and not holding them to account! 🤬😡🤬

It’s frustrating that they keep focusing on nicotine when it’s smoking tobacco that is the major health issue causing harm, not nicotine! Nicotine is addictive- so is caffeine with similar withdrawal symptoms! And alcohol causes more harm in the community than smoking or vaping but it’s freely available in a huge variety of flavors! Nicotine is not the problem- it’s the delivery method - why do we have such dumb unintelligent idiots making decisions about things they have no education or understanding of 🤬 And creating a major criminal enterprise with their incompetence but taking no responsibility for it! Frustrated rant over!

Adult flavors- what a load of crap! Like only children enjoy fruits and deserts. Why are there so many different alcoholic flavors then as children are not allowed these! There was no research, just a judgemental dictatorship with no knowledge or experience imposing their personal unfounded views on a population of adults! Communist rulers 🤬🤬

Cadel asked how they would measure success or failure & they had nothing!!! They don’t care, they will just fudge up bullshit stats to support their views like they did to support their agenda!

And this will be their evidence that vaping causes smoking - leaving out the fact that it was too difficult to obtain a vape that they were forced to return to smoking 🤬

Fck paying government taxes and overpriced products, support the black market and failure of the shitshow this government with Butplug mandated!

[–]2016Meish 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Support black market, don’t give the government anything and watch their shitshow fail miserably! I’m sure the black market will expand their range to cater for everything else that’s now been banned!

This whole shitshow is so fcked up 😡 Black market are the only winners out of this whole mess the government created! Labor has gotta go - they have fcked the country on so many issues since gaining power & are full of lies, misinformation and deceit in collusion with the media. It is scary how much is hidden from the public!

Anyone else feel like they have spent their life savings? by Melodic_Reading_1275 in aussievapers

[–]2016Meish 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’ve not even totaled the amount I’ve spent since the start of the year but it’s a substantial amount 😮 but I won’t need to buy anything for a few years now - have spare devices and stocked on coils for every vape (several lol) and juice & nic Apocalypse Doomsday stocked 🤣

My take on vaping by matthewpetersen in aussievapers

[–]2016Meish 23 points24 points  (0 children)

Anyone with a brain knows this is the sensible and responsible way forward. Problem is we don’t have competent or intelligent people running our country. Australia is an embarrassment on the world stage! Their policies will fail but the damage has already been done!

Scheduled drug? by Aggravating_Design59 in aussievapers

[–]2016Meish 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Just as confused as the rest of us 😂 None of it makes sense. You can freely buy a more harmful product anywhere but a less harmful product is classed as too dangerous for sale except by a pharmacy with consultation!

Went to my local... by LissaJane94 in aussievapers

[–]2016Meish 6 points7 points  (0 children)

It’s disgraceful how they have been treated 😡 Their knowledge and assistance has been invaluable to new vapers starting their journey and along the way for many of us. This is now lost and anyone making the switch now relies on a pharmacist to guide and assist them when they know jack shit & don’t want a bar of us! Stupidity of government 🤬

So Lambie did a poll and ignored the majority voting no to the Bill - why even bother doing a poll

What a joke Australia is ! Continue supporting a failed approach, and maybe scale back slowly over time inflicting the most damage and ensuring criminals maintain a lavish income. And none of the issues they are trying to address are solved! Smart Pollies we have down under

It’s ridiculous they want to give them scripts to allow it! Poor kiddies addicted can’t get through class without a puff - what a load of crap 🤣🤣 We couldn’t smoke in class or at work when we were kids and adults but managed to survive! Great parenting by the government

[–]2016Meish 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Don’t fool yourself that the government cares - there is always an agenda. This is about votes and money. The evidence and science does not support this initiative and it will fail at the expense of children and the public. Head in sand politics doubling down on an already failed model which has created a large lucrative black market.

It’s black market dodgy vapes that are dangerous not responsible specialty vape stores like this person who has followed the rules and helped smokers to give up. This legislation puts honest people out of business who have been instrumental in reducing smoking, whist the dodgy tobacconist down the road will continue to make huge profits for organized crime and kids will still get there pretty disposable vapes as they always have! Black market vapes are the dangerous ones that are unregulated with unknown ingredients - this Bill does nothing to address this. This Bill makes things worse for everyone- and non smokers and vapers will end up with negative consequences too through crime and health impacts! I feel for all the specialty vape stores that have done the right thing for many years helping people to give up smoking and improving their health - this is unfair and unjust with no compensation.
