Vaping refers to using electronic cigarettes that deliver nicotine through vapor, while junk food includes high-calorie, low-nutrition foods like candy, chips, and sugary drinks. Both are linked to various health issues, especially among young people. Proponents argue that banning promotion helps protect the health of young people, reduces the risk of developing lifelong unhealthy habits, and decreases public health costs. Opponents argue that such bans infringe on commercial free speech, limit consumer choice, and that education and parental guidance are more effective ways to promote healthy lifestyles.

@B2LDTPQ5 days5D
no, but educate people on the adverse health risks
@B2L3WL46 days6D
Yes, for things that are known issues with any/minimal use, not for things that are fine in moderation.
@B2JV2GH1wk1W
Yes, but only to products like vaping, smoking and drinking
@B2JM5M91wk1W
Yes. Vapes should be banned and junk food taxed or limited.
@B2HM86Z 2wks2W
Things like vapes and physically harmful things should be banned but junk food is a personal choice that aren't necessarily bad unlike vapes
@B2FTPK3 2wks2W
Yes, but only addictive or extremely harmful products.

Junk food advertising needs to be banned. Advertising uses known phsychological studies to manipulate people into wanting things they do not need. Advertising needs to be really pulled into line across many industries. You banned tobacco advertising and junk food contributes to far greater and far more health issues than tobacco ever did.

The government should band vaping but not junk food.
