For four years, I have been reading folks posting "time to stock up" or "its ok, they cant regulate 18650's"....How about changing the mentality to "TIME TO FIGHT BACK"!!!!
I'm very sorry to hear that. I feel that we are a kind of brotherhood here and in some sense what hurts one hurts us all. I wish I had a job to offer--only advice and tea and sympathy--but if you'd like to PM me, please don't hesitate.No trouble buddy, I just ordered $1,000 of vape supplies today and I lost my job last month, so I get it! Peace.
The rules are fully enforceable unless a federal judge issues a temporary injunction. It's too early to predict whether that might occur.
I have been in and out of work for the last few years, and have, through necessity, turned vaping cheap into an art, learn to build coils and make juice, makes things muc uhh easier.Well, I've done some work, however ineffective. I've messaged Ivanka on FB and written to several influential political bloggers to please cover the abuse of the FDA (and other 3 letters.) It's a battle of both politics and public opinion.
BTW, I'm out of work, and will work, but I will be fine no matter what, I was gonna retire in 5 years anyway, this just makes me adjust a bit.
I have been out of work too long to even THINK of stocking up the way I would like to
Same here, actually think im going to lose my job as-well for missing too many days due to health issues and a bad year in general.. Sucks
I think the best thing we can do at the moment is to stock up on things we need: extra e-liquid, batteries, etc. At least have some for a little while.
No, the FDA has not set any objective standards whatsoever. It is impossible to know if paying for at least 1,500 lawyer hours and hundreds of thousands of dollars on an application will give an e-juice maker a fair shot at getting approved. So, I seriously doubt there will be many, if any, legally sold bottles of e-juice.

Maybe CA will chip off the side of the continent and float away.
Nope. It's mostly politics. It's mainly because banning cigarettes would cause about 40 million people to vote against anyone who voted for or signed a bill banning a product they are dearly fond of.OK, you have cigarettes. They have been proved to be harmful. Can you still smoke them? Yes. Do they ban them? No. Why? Revenue.
Year 2018, overheard in a state prison:
Prisoner A: "Psst, what are you in for?"
Prisoner B: "Child molestation and murder. You?"
Prisoner A: "Constructive possession of a rebuildable atomizer."
BAWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH...that's funny.
Seems all this regulation is thinly guised as targeted to protect children, while we all know its to get this stuff all taxed.
Meanwhile we have some states that are making candy bars, gummys and even e-liquid with you know what in it, why is that good? .. but they turn a blind eye when its of course against federal law ... because they tax the daylights out if it ... is certainly isn't health food lol
People will be arrested and this is a breeding ground for organized crime.
The Government cant make a Decision like this alone, but they can make it happen anyway. This shows you how Corrupt we have let them get. WE gave them the idea that we work for them and do as they say, When it was meant to be the total opposite.
Americans need to come back together, the Government has been splitting us up into "Categories" instead of People just so they can take over everything while were all looking at each-other.. We need to fix this somehow, even if we dont know how yet.. Something has to be done about the Government, they have bee going WAY TOO FAR lately, Well the past 10-20 years actually..

This is all going to backfire on these money grubbing vermin ... vaping will prevail as the medical miracle it appears to be.
mark my words ... 10 years from now, we'll still be waiting for the first vaper to report a decline in health ... 1st out of millions of vapers.
within 5 years, Doctors will be speaking about the results they are seeing in ex-smoking patients.
BG is so incompetent ... they should have done this back in 2007 when they had a shot at killing vaping to save BT.
it's too late now ... this blatant attempt to hijack vaping to replace lost tobacco taxes will be exposed.
shortest Prohibition ever
Sometimes I Wonder if it would have Just Been Better to give them those GD Taxes from Day 1?
To be blunt, you're wrong. Congress has empowered the FDA to regulate "tobacco products." "Tobacco products" are defined as anything derived from the tobacco plant and anything that is a "component" of a tobacco product. The FDA has interpreted "component" to mean anything used to consume a tobacco product. All nicotine is derived from the tobacco plant. FDA regulations have the force and effect of law.But, but... The FDA can't make any laws. Only Congress. Am I wrong? And this administration is on its way out, anyway.
