Nicotine outside of its addictiveness does have perks. It does assist with anxiety and makes you more aware which is said to make you remember things better. They aren't advertised often because the downsides of smoking cigarettes outweigh them usually.

I would argue that if they were trying to make it about health, edibles and such may reduce lung and other impacts by cannabis but only time will tell in studies.

The law just seems strange to me to say, we vote ban smoking cigarettes (pre-rolled) for those who can't vote and have no say, but we keep that privilege for ourselves. Also no changes to rules about smoking around those people.

Either make the rules for everyone or no one.
