The government isn’t interested in solutions to help people quit smoking. They’re interested in keeping the donations rolling in from big tobacco.

My wife, mother-in-law, and brother all quit cigarettes thanks to e-cigs. My brother still uses his but with the 0 mg nicotine “flavor.” My wife and mother-in-law quit altogether and have been smoke free for over 2 years.

E-cigs work for people who desperately want or need to quit. The fact that they’re being misused by youth and have become the source of scorn for some in the public should be tangential to the fact that they are helping people quit tobacco. That’s the reason for this regulation. If health was truly a concern, big tobacco would be out of business or at least seriously limited to niche markets.

Biggest overreach by a federal agency and not a peep about it in the media.

A li-ion battery is now tobacco!

For decades, the federal government has been on a mission to create a “smoke-free society”

Then why the drive to sell pot?

And now the government is starting to legalize marijuana. Soon they’ll legalize a host of other drugs just to get the tax revenue. It’s never about public safety or health.
