The legal U.S. tobacco use age is raised to 21.

It will be harder for minors to obtain cigarettes
and other nicotine products.

Less people will become addicted to tobacco or nicotine.

By making cigarettes taboo, it will hopefully bring
a negative connotation towards cigarettes.

Raising the age to 21 will hopefully break the trend
of smokers becoming addicted by/before the age of 18.

With the increase of purchasing age, there will be a decrease
in sales thus meaning less taxes being earned.

Tobacco companies may also see a decrease in sales and customer base.

The vaping epidemic among American youth is
a perfect example of an alternative becoming
another issue within its self.

The creation of nicotine gums, patches, lozenges,
inhalers, pills and many more other nicotine alternatives.
