The same as juice prices being leveled out by consumers, consumers also made juice makers and vendors offer childproof caps. There were also certain chemicals used to make some juices which were detrimental. Consumers again fought and got the majority to use other chemicals, or no longer carry the juices requiring those chemicals.
What the consumers ask the industry provides. Vaping has been very self regulated, or regulated by consumers who are knowledgeable. Consumers are even responsible for getting warning labels on bottles, before any government regulating it.
And still the government came at us with the iron fist. They didn't know we'd already self regulated. If they did they didn't care because well, money. Vaping took over one billion from Big tobacco in sales, not to mention the money from States that used the Master Settlement money. That's money with a capital M.
When vaping started doing that it became a threat. Vaping saves lives and as a results takes money off the table. So, yes it's a threat for sure. People are changing the world for the better. You can bet Big corporations won't stand for it.
Imagine all those cigarette butts. All that cotton needs processed. . You need machines that require oil, power that requires oil or gas. Remove those butts by vaping and you take need of oil out of the system. Use synthetic nicotine you eliminate the need to farm tobacco. All of this is money took away.
Save smokers from C.O.P.D, strokes, heart diseases and Big pharmaceutical companies lose money too. Are you beginning to grasp the threat we pose? People are leading. People are making money and government/s irrelevant. How do I get that? Well look at our P.I.F. section once. Look at our reviews sections. Look at how People define the market in vaping.
We, People, also have a daily check in thread. We look out for one another. Does it matter about creed, color, orientation, religion, political affiliations? No. We're here for one another.
What does this have to do with thread? Well we can point out our DIY thread where People post recipes, all kinds of desert flavors, menthol too, breakfast. The OP can find a way to make juice they control the quality over, and lower costing. They don't need to beg permission from the Bigs. All they need to do is read, follow simple instructions, maybe mix a bit more to their own tastes, get a product.
But I’d never buy a 180ml for $80. Not now, when you can get OHW for $20 for 100ml.
