But why the hell is this admin banning flavored ecigs? The black market is just gonna sell flavored God knows what.
From everything I have read the health issues have all come from thc and the use of vitamin E.
I actually think cigarettes should be illegal but that's a different argument.
Thoughts on this upcoming ban??

It's a slippery slope...
For example, I am all for maximum liberty, understanding the rights of others end where mine begin.
In short, I'm uncomfortable telling somebody else what they can and cannot do to themselves, with a huge caveat: I should also not bear the burden of your poor decision-making.
So, say we wave a magic wand and poof emergency rooms no longer have to treat overdoses. What about my child who gets roflstomped by a driver on bath salts, or a private plane crashes into my home because the pilot took a hit of LSD?
Prohibition doesn't work. As you said above, this will just create a black market. I think a partial answer is tort and entitlement reform. Let Darwin do his thing.
That pushes the responsibility to the end user with no social safety net if they do dumb shit.
That remedy ceases to suffice, however, when the ingested substance is behavior-altering. There is no recourse for a family torn apart because a member was killed by a substance abuser's choice.
