Does the term "Irish Democracy" mean anything to you? Simply put, it means the People ignore stupid laws. This is a very old concept: St. Augustine wrote "Lex iniusta non est lex," an unjust law is not law. The fact of the matter is mods are easy to build with simple tools-- mechanicals or MOSFET mods, anyway-- and there will never be any shortage. Toppers might be a problem, but they're nothing a CNC machine shop can't run up in thousands a week. Nicotine might be controlled, and it's hard to extract; you have to know how and it's dangerous because in concentrated form it is a serious poison. But if the price is right, it will be available. The rest of the stuff it takes to make vape gear-- resistance heating wire, wicking materials, PG, VG, flavor molecules, batteries and so forth, all have multiple uses and will not be regulated. It does mean those who prefer the convenience of pre-made coils will be put out and either have to learn to build and DIY or buy on the black market. But they're not going to outlaw simple possession. They might make it unlawful to sell the stuff without the official approval of the government, but once you have your hands on it you won't be in trouble for having it. So order it from outside the country, or buy on the black market, or make it yourself. Stock up now, is my advice. I have about enough nicotine to last several decades in the freezer, and some dozens of mods, mostly mechanicals. Anybody who knows how to solder can buy a switch, a 510 connector and a voltage regulated 500 watt DC power supply on eBay and make a wall-socket-juice type mod in an afternoon's work. Won't be pretty, maybe, but it will vape.
