Every election year, Oklahoma politicians talk about how they want to diversify the economy and bring new jobs to state. So far, it looks like their plans have only worked for the e-cig and vaping industry. In every shopping center in every town in every corner of this state there seems to be at least one vape shop staffed by a guy with overly-groomed facial hair and a gray ivy cap selling e-liquids and flavor juices from who knows where to desperate nicotine addicts.
Knowing that, it shouldn't be surprising to know that Oklahoma Congressman Tom Cole is being hailed as a savior of the industry.
