Let's see what the rule is, before people go hollering nanny state.

My guess is that they will require child proof containers for the liquid nicotine to reduce the number of child poisonings.

And I wouldn't be surprised to see them require some testing and approval of the ingredients. Do you know what chemicals they are putting in your e-vapors? Do you even care? Do you like being a guinea pig? How long before someone puts some unique ingredient in a vapor that causes damage?

Do you assume that we all trust anything available on a shelf of a store? Plenty of us do not-I don’t use e-cigs, I don’t do drugs, illicit or prescription, and I don’t eat processed, or even most canned food. I’m a responsible adult-I don’t apply, eat, smoke, or drink anything without reading the ingredients and looking up the contents on the net, and I don’t trust or need the FDA to tell me how/what to eat, smoke, drink or wash my dishes in.

And the FDA doesn’t care at all if you are a lab rat-if you don’t believe that, check out the ingredients on the next pre-packaged food item you consume, or the next OTC drug you take for a sneeze. And it is not “for the children”, either...

How about we go back to being responsible for our own kids and our own selves, and hiring companies not connected with government and/or lobbyists to do independent testing on new products? I’m sure there are plenty of testing labs who would appreciate the business-put it into private hands and let them bid on it.

Spoken like a good slave. Massa knows best. If you’re scared of e-cigs, don’t buy one. Same logic as guns.

“Let’s see what the rule is, before people go hollering nanny state.”

The FDA isn’t congress, and should have no authority to be issuing rules of any sort.

Yes and yes.
The only "controversial" ingredient involved has been approved for use in foods for many many decades.

I’m not a smoker, but big government is a much bigger threat than some guy selling e-cigarettes.
