My hypothesis:
That all forms of vapes should be banned due to respiratory illnesses and we don’t know the long-term effects.
Who: Vapes
What : vapes should be banned
Why: they are causing sicknesses and don’t know long term affect
Testing the who:This is a very controversial topic right due to recent cases of young adults forming a respiratory illness I believe who has the need are people who don’t vape and have friends and family around them who do and are encouraging them to stop.
Testing the what: “Is banning vapes going to stop vape smokers?” “What are smokers going to resort to?” “Shouldn’t we be banning cigarettes too?”
Testing the why: Are they just smoking nicotine or some other drug?
After I interviewed the five people most people agreed on banning all vapes. The people who opposed banning vapes where a vape smoker and a vape shop worker. They believe that if they ban all vapes that it’s not going to stop the use of them, and people will be using them illegally and then the FDA can’t regulate them. The other three all consistently agreed that vaping is the new thing for young teens and America is taking a good direction in stopping it.
The interviews went in the direction I excepted knowing that I was problem going to get two opposing sides saying that the black market it going to increase. Making something illegal in America like during the prohibition people are going to find ways around it, and if we are selling it we can approve of the ingredients. After my interview I still believe that vapes should be banned however there could still have vapes that are helping people stop smoking cigarettes
Hey Carly,
ReplyDeleteI agree that vaping is a highly controversial topic right now, but I agree with your statements. When people started smoking cigarettes, they did not know the long term health effects and did it because it was cool at the time. It is almost like people never learn from mistakes because the same thing is happening with vaping right now. Until further testing is done for years, people should stick to traditional methods to quit smoking with tools like nicotine patches.
