This country was a better place when most people smoked tobacco.
That’s not really a comment about tobacco. That’s a comment on the loss of freedom and personal choice, and the intrusion of the Nanny State to make sure that you make all the right decisions. They know what’s best for you.
How many deaths have been caused by ecigs?
ACTUAL ecigs -not the homemade mods that blow people’s faces off.
As far as I’m concerned, they’ve saved my life.
I have the opinion that vaping is less hazardous to health than smoking cigarettes. Many people here in MN were changing their habit to vaping, and E-Cig stores popped up all over the place. Not long into it, the powers that be in the state legislature realized that their tobacco tax cash cow was disappearing, so the discussion began to label the e-cigs ‘cigarettes’ and subject them to the same taxes as tobacco cigarettes. To me, the uproar about the e-cigs by the government is all about the money.
E-cigarettes are a drug delivery device.
“A terrible public health threat to young people”. So far, all they can point to as far as a health issue is that vaping will lead to cigarettes. Which, of course, there is no evidence of this. So when is the surgeon general going to come out about marijuana being a gateway drug to opioids?
I have vaped for over four years after being an almost lifetime smoker. I have not wanted or touched a cigarette. I feel great, lung capacity has improved greatly, no odor, no fire risk, can vape in my house, much less expensive and NO OUTRAGEOUS TAXES......which will soon change.
Vaping is both idiotic and dangerous. I know a friend who caught his son vaping, it took them two hours to get the film off the inside of the windows, the stuff was like goo. They can and do put all kinds of chemicals in the vape, just terrible. I’m all for making it illegal, it’s doing drugs, period.
Get rid of these idiotic things.
I know there’s still a lot of unsettled ‘science’ that remains around the effects of the ‘juice’ inside these e-cigs and vaporizors. What I can say is that I appreciate not having all my ‘smoking’ coworkers sitting around me smelling like ashtrays.
These idiot alarmists....
I work in the food manufacturing industry. We use propoline glycol and vegetable glycerin in a lot of the products we make. people consume these substances on a near daily basis in the food they eat.
These two substances are what is used in vape juice. I guess these morons should ban food too.
No word from the Surgeon General about the benefits of free range weed?.
why would anyone want to discourage the switch from cigarettes to a little electronic cigarette with so many fewer health issues...
Are these people brain dead or are they being payed off by the tobacco companies? I really don’t know, I’d call it a tossup.
Anyone trying to kill the e-cig industry is an accessory to murder in my harsh opinion.
But but kids might try them and get addicted! So friggin what, nicotine itself is what, about as harmful as caffeine? Lil’ worse? It’s not killing people, carbon monocide and tar is killing people.
