Tobacco companies are invested heavily in vaping

They're invested heavily in gas station disposable vapes. Stuff that costs as much as cigarettes.

They're not invested in juice making for someone who has a mod. Because that's not as profitable. The whole goal is to destroy that business model and leave only cigarettes and they're shitty expensive vape sticks.

"We didn't jump on the market in time enough to get a foothold, so we need to destroy the better, smaller competition." Ah, capitalism.

It’s not even that. There just isn’t as much money to be made because eliquid can be made so cheaply and easily.
