In many states tobacco taxes are supposedly earmarked for education. That helps ensure strong support for the tax. The average soccer mom would send us all to an early grave so her little Johnny had a teacher that got paid a little more. Nothing's too good for little Johnny.

Follow the money.

Hmm...

JJ Levenstein - Biography - IMDb click!

"...is a member of the Scientific Advisory Council of the National Peanut Board..."

That could explain a lot.

I could put up a link for Dr. JJ's web site - but I won't. You can find it if you want but fair warning: The cutesy child-scrawl font is enough to make you barf.

It is worth a laugh - sorta - only to see the picture of what looks like a 10 year old "H" addict using an e-cigarette on her site, along with her quotes comparing nicotine to all that stuff we can't talk about here.

Not a well Doctor-woman. (If I had to call my MD "Doctor BobBob" I think I would puke.)

Her bio checks out ?

a doc spouting that much garbage, promoting booze on a channel watched by kids... makes one wonder if she did see any of these faciilities from the insde....

But then again, the clink of coin has corrupted many a soul...

I'd more likely believe something out of Cliff Clavin's mouth than hers.

It would have been nice to see in that disgusting video a barrage of banana cream pies from a banana creme pie machine gun splattering all over every one of those misinformed idiots. I bet lady in blue dress gets some kind of monetary appropriations related to her states cig tax is some roundabout way, no revenue= no job.:pervy:

She said e-cig liquid has formaldehyde and alcohol in it?????? Gee, I guess it comes from the air....I make my own and I really, really don't remember putting those in my e-liquid. And, if nicotine is SO addictive, WHY do we have nicorette gum and patches? What a bunch of hooey!

I Un-Liked and commented on both Hallmark and Health & Beauty's versions of this video. I decided rather than continue yelling at them, I would post a brief summary of my experience. I noticed no one else had done that. Maybe it will personalize things a bit. I posted the following:

I smoked for 42 years, up to 2 1/2 packs a day. In the last years, I was getting pneumonia every year, each year worse than the last. It was a matter of time before the illness killed me. Six and 1/2 years ago, I completely transitioned to e-cigarettes in 10 days. I have not had a tobacco cigarette since. Nor have I had pneumonia. My health has improved dramatically, I no longer smell like an ashtray, I am no longer a pariah- the people I know understand that my vapor is of no harm to them. Vaping is not smoking. Nicotine is not tobacco. After 42 years of mostly hating myself for smoking, I broke the chains to Big Tobacco. I dare this Dr. JJ to look me in the eye and tell me I am as badly off as when I smoked!

Deeming brings on all the pseudo BS scientists and researchers and every kind of leech piggybacking on all the deeming BS. A never ending river of health related BS leading into a bottomless ocean of lies and deceit.
Well stated.

What you said made something click for me...
These pseudo-scientists and pseudo-researchers are like ambulance chasing lawyers.

Disgusting.

I'm betting those DIY Bacon Candles they were hyping (I saw the list of their videos) are more toxic than vapor.
That's a bet you'll win all day long.
And it's not even close.

I hope you find some pseudo-scientists willing to take that bet.
Less money in their pockets means less crap spewed.
