    Wall Street Journal Article about FDA regulations to be relased Thursday 4/23/14

    Well, you are right. You are not exactly coming down off the mountain with the tablets with that. The FDA is funded by Big Pharma. But we the people actually won one this time around. I'm not sure that big Pharma really fought this one hard. Global NRT is "only" a two billion-dollar business...

    Wall Street Journal Article about FDA regulations to be relased Thursday 4/23/14

    If you don't think this is a good thing, you don't understand how politics work. A lot can change in 2 years. Today's Bonapartist could be tomorrow's victim of the guillotine. Bonaparte may be exiled to the island of Elba. It all depends on who is in charge at the time.

    Wall Street Journal Article about FDA regulations to be relased Thursday 4/23/14

    E-Cigarettes Face First Regulations - WSJ.com It's not as bad as we have feared. FDA To make an announcement tomorrow. Basically they have punted.

    UPDATE 6/25/14! NJ Gov. Chris Christie proposes taxing e-cigs at rate equal to $2.70/pack cigarette tax + other issues

    I will. Remember that in New Jersey the governor has line item veto power. Meaning he can just strike Any particular item out of the budget. The only way the legislature can override it is by a two thirds majority. And that is extremely unlikely because they would need Republicans to cross party...

    UPDATE 6/25/14! NJ Gov. Chris Christie proposes taxing e-cigs at rate equal to $2.70/pack cigarette tax + other issues

    I don't believe for a second that Gov. Christie intentionally proposed such nonsense. It's a $33 billion budget with a lot of stuff in it. Written by other people. You have to delegate and sometimes garbage is the result. When I hear him say that he wants people to smoke cigarettes as opposed...

    City of Poway CA considers defining vaping as smoking - Tues meeting (cross posted)

    If you ever have to follow one of these special interest mouthpieces in a legislative hearing, you can always try the Vincent Laguardia Gambini defense from the movie "My Cousin Vinny". Sleep through the lies and ignore them and then say: "everything that guy just said is bull....! Thank you.":-)

    City of Poway CA considers defining vaping as smoking - Tues meeting (cross posted)

    That is what you are going to get everywhere e-cig laws are proposed: big Pharma funded front groups who are pimping themselves out for cash. They make six figures peddling lies, you don't expect them to take a real job at Walmart as a cashier do you? You can only hope that the elected public...

    Ecig ban in public places looming in Michigan County.

    I think the best way to handle it is the way that Greg/placebo effect did it in Connecticut. The thread is somewhere down here. But it was masterful. He asked them If he can perform a demonstration that shows there can be no second hand vapor. Then he did a stealth vaping...

    Ecig ban in public places looming in Michigan County.

    Just stealth vape. Or vape in an empty courthouse room or when you go to the restroom. There are billions of dollars at stake here from MSA settlement payments and state cigarette taxes. Statsts are not happy about potentially losing that money. They will come after you like an angry drunk...

    Ecig ban in public places looming in Michigan County.

    You are their worst enemy. Crony capitalists and special interest groups get their way because regular people are too busy to say anything.

    Ecig ban in public places looming in Michigan County.

    I am not sure that my fellow vapors understand the enemy. This is a racket and nicotine is the drug. Big government wants tax money from the sale of cigarettes. Big Pharma wants 700% profits on the sale of flavored gum and candy with nicotine. We are stuck in the middle of a gang battle...

    Legacy urges FDA to ban all e-cigs by “immediately” imposing the “deeming” regulation, makes more false fear mongering claims

    Big government agencies and bureaucracies are very concerned about your health. You have to trust them. They are us. They are "we the people". They cannot be influenced by big pharmaceutical money funding the FDA. Or by their reliance on cigarette taxes to fund their state and federal...

    It was -21° with the windchill in Chicago today.

    (Florida) Bill Would Block Electronic Cigarettes For Minors

    Big Pharma prices it at $2100 per bottle. But if you have healthcare insurance it's free and covered under preventive care. Doesn't matter what it really costs. Take four of them. :-)

    (Florida) Bill Would Block Electronic Cigarettes For Minors

    There is a reason why five out of the 11 richest counties in America are all within a 20 mile radius of DC. That's where the money and the power and the policy that picks winners and losers is. With taxpayer money and political favors. I give you a lot of credit for being able To deal with...

    Los Angeles CIty COuncil -- Outright LIES or MISINFORMATION? Addictive E-Cigarettes BANNED (NBC)

    You are giving these activist left wing LA erected public serpents way too much power over you. You should show up at the council hearing and beg them to pass the ban. Spiced Apple cider vapor tastes much better in your office When it is forbidden fruit. They can't possibly enforce this...

    Why the FDA can NOT make illegal E-Cigs (false concern), Usage Bans in Public are the REAL problem

    I believe people I know and trust like Elaine and Bill. It's hard to find honest people you can trust. When you find one, whether It's a doctor, lawyer, barber, bartender, Husband, wife, Coach they cannot be replaced by machines. Trust is hard to earn and easy to lose. As the...
