You know, again, if you read what you just posted with some objectivity you’ll actually see that what you’re trying to claim is false.

The links comparing nicotine pros and cons and caffeine pros and cons have the EXACT SAME pros and cons for each drug if you discount the cancer link to nicotine.

And WHY should we do that in this case? Because we’re talking about e-cigs now, NOT tobacco products which is what the ehow comparison is taking about.

So there we go my main case is made: if you want nicotine itself regulated by the FDA “for the good of people” you should also want your morning cup of coffee regulated.

Otherwise you’re being a hypocrite. Or short-sighted if you can’t see or don’t want to see that the reason the FDA doesn’t even DREAM of trying to regulate caffeine is because there would be too much of a backlash. And why would there be a backlash? Because the price of every caffeinated product would go up tremendously as does every FDA regulated product because once the government’s hand is in production of anything the price of production skyrockets. Because of all the regulatory costs!

This is basic conservative 101 stuff. Like I said anyone who is a conservative knows this. KNOWS that the FDA is bloated beyond control, just like all agencies and looks for ways to justify its bloated state. Not to mention the overarching agenda of statism fluent throughout all government. The petty desire to control everyone because nanny states know best. At least know what’s best for you, for me, and everyone else who is not in charge.

Does the FDA serve a purpose? Of course it does. But it could be at least as effective with probably half the staff they have, if they weren’t so obsessed with nicotine in particular and in general the (medical)lives of every American.

It’s not anyone’s business if I’m inhaling the same vapor mixture as is produced when one slathers Vicks vapor rub on a humidifier (because that’s all that’s in an e-cigarette, other than the nicotine, water vapor and glycerine)

Just as it’s not my business if someone is a caffeine addict.
