What is it about vaping that is causing an uproar to ban it from the public, but there isn't a similar uproar about banning some
alexandr1967 [171]
Ok so this is a tad bit more “involved”

See vaping causes nerves in your brain to shut down and causes cancer and you get the spill...

Certain guns can’t do that. It’s the people who use them... such as the saying “ban idiots not guns” lol.

The reason their is no uproar about guns is because guns don’t have the same effect on your “body” day to day and smoke to smoke that vaping/smoking has.

Hopefully this helped!!! Good luck<3

The principle of checks and balances is based on the notion that
MatroZZZ [7]

Answer:

Power must be used to offset power

Explanation:

In Montesquieu's mind, in the principle of checks and balances, the powers of the state would be divided into: Legislative, Executive, and Judiciary. The legislature has the typical function of legislating and overseeing; the executive, to administer the public thing; the judiciary, judging, applying the law to a specific case before it, resulting from a conflict of interest. Applying the Brake and Balance System means restraining the abuses of other powers to maintain a certain balance. For example, the judiciary, by declaring the unconstitutionality of a law is a brake on the Legislative act that could contain arbitrariness, to the point that the balance is that all powers have different functions, thus, not having a hierarchy between them, making them harmonic and independent powers.

For this reason, we can conclude that the principle of brakes and counterweights is based on the notion that power must be used to offset power.
