okay adjusting to the shifting goalosts. This is not capitalism vs science because the science is on Colbert's side here. what specifically is your issue with that video? all he said between the jokes was the long term health effects of vaping are unknown, which any NIH study 9 years ago could not have known.
And now we know there are negative health effects from vaping. the CDC has an extensive list of citations. Mayo Clinic and Johns Hopkins agree. Vaping may not be as bad as cigarettes, but that doesn't mean it's harmless.
The clear "solution" he is suggesting in the video is that we shouldn't be advertising vaping to kids. While yes, also making jokes.
To me it sounds like you're a vaping enthusiast who can't analyze this topic objectively and are holding a 10 year grudge against colbert for it.
