Very cheap and very effective delivery system:

Paper towel cardboard tube. Punch a small hole about 2-3 inches from one end, insert doobie. Light doobie while putting one hand on the end closest to the doobie. Inhale with enthusiasm until tube is full & nature’s gift begins to enter your mouth. Suddenly release hand blocking the far end and ......uh, what was I saying?

Agreed! We need the FDA to regulate caffeine, too!

“These things should be FDA regulated and subject to the same controls as other medical devices.”

Problem is once the FDA regulates these e cigs, and turns them into “Medical devices” smokers will need to go to an expensive doctor, have it noted on their permanent obamacare record that they smoke, and have one prescribed to them, and then insurance will charge 1200 bucks an e cig. Smokers will not quit using e cigs as it will be cheaper just to smoke and not have to pay for a doctor visit.

I’ve got three of the liquid vapes and two of the dry types.
These things are great and instead of nearly three packs a day it’s more like 5-6 butts per day. Three different flavors, usb chargers, a different buzz for any occasion or whim. This old guy is pleased with the scene.

They have liquid pot?

Used basically with the oil -- hashish; also "wax"; some do work with the dried plant material.

These things should be FDA regulated and subject to the same controls as other medical devices. That will not reduce their effectiveness as an alternate way of delivering nicotine.

I wouldn't bet on that. The FedMob makes a lot of things less effective than they should be. It would definitely increase the cost ridiculously. To see what a bangup job the FDA does just count the number of TV ads you see for class action law suits against FDA-approved drugs.

Oh yes it is......They stand to lose all that tax money from tobacco sales.

Exactly.

First they demonize it. Then they ban or regulate it. Then come the taxes. Sound familiar?

“What this is is a money grab. It's a way of trying to find revenue to replace lost tobacco taxes.”
If they could regulate & tax sex, they'd do that, too.

Errrr....

Despite the flurry of interest in the bill, largely driven by the relative “celebrity” of many of the prostitutes who have recently appeared on a number of HBO productions, it’s likely to go nowhere. Politicians don’t want to be seen as supportive of prostitution in the state, which, while legal, is still considered immoral… like, oh say, cigarettes and alcohol, both of which are legal and taxed?
LOL

Come up here around July 15th when the stores open.

I didn’t even know what “hashish” was until just recently.

Now I’ve read all about it.

I don't see in Art. 1 Section 8 where congress is authorized to make laws concerning medical devices.

Hear, hear.
