Soooo... now that the voting is over in the USA and "You Know Who" won... I wonder what this is
going to bring for us in our near future :confused:

Like I have posted elsewhere...

People didn't get enough the first 4 years... Now he has his big chance to finish us off! (in everything).

Neither one of them were worth voting for but we were caught between a rock and a hard place.

I can honestly see why every other country out there is laughing at the USA...

I Love my Country... but FEAR my Government!

Sure... you can trust the government... Ask ANY Indian!

Y'all are Welcome to move North for the next 4 years if you think that would be better. That's all I can offer.

(Warning, we have politicians here too)

Well, heck, I know how to get to Windsor. You just go to Toledo, drive north on I75 along the western edge of Lake Erie until you get to Detroit, then turn onto the Detroit Windsor Tunnel. *Snap* Don't forget your passport and some money to pay the Trolls. Yes, they have those darn Troll Roads in Canada, too.

i wonder what would happen with people using the zero nic juice? I love how Americans find a nice cheap and safer product other than those nasty analogs to fulfill there need and then heres comes the government (the fun police) to rain on everyone's parade. The government should fix itself before punishing us, they think they dont have any money try being a citizen! damn crooks!

We could say that The State ought to check itself before it wrecks itself---but we'd be a generation or two too late.
:toast:Cheers anyhow. Welcome to ECF Ricky.

Don't just post here write, yes old school wrote your congressman. Send one letter a week, start a change.org petition, ask your friends and family to sign it. My sister is a MD and told me to smoke ecigs heck she smokes ecigs when she smokes (like twice a year lol). This is some bs how can they ban ecigs but not 5k chemical death sticks? Well we all know the answer to that.

We can the two generations removed, "Baby Boomers". The less tar and carbon-monoxide inhaled the longer and stronger our lifespans will be.. These corporate giants, big pharma, about 35 years ago, looked at the statistics, the disease ratios, and said, in the little boardroom EUREKA! We've struck gold...here's our nest egg............... When the baby boomers start succumbing to the diseases related to smoking, we will have ....
an anti (ANTZ) smoking zealotry in full swing... and we will have drugs for the end of life cycle of smokers. We will have drugs, that we hope might work for quitting. We will control billions of dollars off the backs of the largest population to be aging all at the same time ever on the planet! Eureka! There's gold in them stocks and bonds.

I live in a country that is basically a proxy for all the crazy things that the US and UK would like to do, like plain packaging for cigarettes, minimum price for alcohol, banning of E-Cigs etc

Barrack Obama and Julia Gillard must be a lot closer than I first thought, the legislation has a familiar ring to it.
Welcome to USAustralia people and all that its legislation has to offer, because it is coming to you next.
Big Government anywhere, has its disadvantages.

This legislation would represent is a self inflicted blow on our part, regardless of where in the world you live.

vaping, that looks like Smoking, being done defiently in no smoking zones, with devices that look like cigarettes - well, what did we really expect our legislators to do ?

It may be time to test the envelope, (prohibition has a poor history) and go back to square 1.
Hopefully any legislation will only apply to pre-filled chinese imports, not quality built American product.
American jobs in an industry that America already excels in, but could dominate worldwide in terms of guaranteed quality of product
and create more jobs - how could any 'State' refuse.

Just my perspectice from the 'Sunny' a_se end of the world :)


PS. As an 'Upside' the only real worry you have is if they legislate on the purchese of nicotine.

TG our pollies are as apperently stupid as yours.

Take care out there.

Yeah they took him to the state supreme court like five times, lost on every count and they still went after him. Talk about harassment...And all he was doing was...Curing children of brain cancer. Meanwhile you should see the list of what the FDA does approve or otherwise look the other way on.

If cigarettes can kill you and the FDA bans a safe alternative in favor of Big Tobacco and Big Pharma well...There ought to be a rebellion. But hey, I'm Canadian, far be it for me to tell what Americans should do. I know if it was Health Canada banning e-cigarettes I'd organize a march on down to HQ.

If the stock holders, big pharma, FDA and all the other ANTZ groups, have thought the boomers are forgotten or to old to fight They have not paid attention to history 1960's and 70's, look at all the changes that were brought about by people who believed they were right to stand up to BIG GOV. Boomers who switch to vaping have the breathe and capacity to fight if need be at least we can march!!! Hope the billy clubs won't swing, but I bet they might.

Wow!! I ended up watching the whole video.... All I can say is the FDA is ABSURD!!! Makes me sick to my stomach

100% to your comments!

The sad part is that this is one story! We know that they have their heel on the back of more than one neck. Imagine how many things we are being protected from because the wrong people have discovered them.

I feel free to comment on the FDA because their influence is not contained to the USA boundaries. Their decisions have Global repercussions, indeed they could not be influential without international cooperation.
