    Unlikely. The public and political agendas are just the opposite for the two substances: most people support the expansion of cannabis products and oppose the expansion of nicotine products.

      safe effective nicotine consumption were generally supported by the public too and was being ingrained in the culture in movies and tv

      now it is combustible cigarettes with alcohol being heavily promoted again as well in television and film

      if the US does not stop voting in senile past retirement age religious right leaning presidents who view any alteration in the citizen’s conscience it might not ever change or get better

          the synthetic nicotine being produce is done with green chemistry meaning no heavy metals used in synthesis

          with the nicotine being lab made no ground pollutants such as lead and other heavy metals are present just like fake vanilla extract which most seasoning coming from India with polluted soil

          also less soil less environmental impact

          the ingredients have gotten safer over time as well also leading to changes in other industries

          hugely better product both health and environmental and all around

          not to mention not have the ill effects of second hand smoke

          my own lung capacity was around 80% and dropping during the years was consuming combustible nicotine and cannabis products but now is above 90% had my lungs checked by a doctor

          lightyears healthier

            None of that has to do with your claim, and it is also more claims instead of evidence.

            Where’s your evidence that there is a safe level of nicotine consumption?

                Safer is not safe.

                I agree, it’s safer. But how can we know it’s safe below a certain amount for lifelong vapers when there hasn’t been enough time to do a long-term study?

                Wouldn’t (and I say this as a long-term cannabis vaporizer myself) putting anything into the lungs on a regular basis other than air be inherently unsafe long-term?
