Australia to ban recreational vaping in e-cigarette crackdown. Really!

Is the government of Australia absolutely nuts! Absurd!

This is Big Government paternalism run amok! Covid-19 was a prelude! Individual liberty is under attack!

It is well known for a very long time that such draconian government measures to deal with vices etc. are useless! Al Capone is smiling from his grave!

"Australia said on Tuesday it will ban recreational vaping and tighten other aspects of e-cigarette laws in the biggest crackdown on the tobacco industry in more than a decade to try to stop an alarming rise in teenage vaping.
The government aims to ban all disposable vapes, which often comes in fruity flavours, ban the import of non-prescription vapes and limit nicotine levels, aiming for the sale of vapes to be confined to helping smokers quit. ...
Under the new rules, vapes will be sold only in pharmacies and require "pharmaceutical-type" packaging. Disposable vapes popular with young people will also be banned. ..."
