Head Democrat Orders FDA Director to Ban E-cigs or Resign

[Baditude]

Okay, I googled it. 6 deaths from vape (total), 157,423 deaths from cigarettes/lung cancer (just last year alone). Even assuming half the cigarette deaths were wrongly attributed to cigarettes and it's only 78,711 who die yearly from cigarettes... man, it's so obvious where their priority is.

I think your google numbers are off.

• Worldwide, tobacco use causes more than 7 million deaths per year. If the pattern of smoking all over the globe doesn’t change, more than 8 million people a year will die from diseases related to tobacco use by 2030.
• Cigarette smoking is responsible for more than 480,000 deaths per year in the United States, including more than 41,000 deaths resulting from secondhand smoke exposure. 1,300 deaths every day.

Fast Facts

Here is why all of this is relevant:

I'm not sure about that. It seems to me there is a larger portion of people who question the official narrative today than when it came from the mouth of Walter Cronkite each evening at 7pm.

You think so? All the time, I see article links posted and not a single person/commenter will read the article. They comment from the headline only. It's embarrassing to see, especially when the article spells everything out for them.

So I haven’t watched many commentary videos on YouTube because of lack of time. Yesterday I watched a couple of videos and they basically said that vaping is dangerous and it’s bad for you and we shouldn’t be doing it. One of them being a doctor, a doctor whose channel is mostly dedicated to checking out doctor tv series and seeing if they are realistic or not... the other one I watched about an hour ago, it was by a commentary channel that mostly exposes people from the YouTube Community because of their dramas. He also said that vaping is bad.

I don’t think I should be watching any more videos on the subject.

If it was just about vaping it might not be THAT bad, but you are right everything is getting completely insane in this country. People wanting full fledged socialism, sharia law, wanting government to control what we eat, drink, vape or not, etc. I don't even recognize this place any more. I am actually strongly considering retiring out of the country to try and escape the insanity before it fully takes over. Considering Panama or Chile as the current top prospects. I have not checked on their vape laws yet so that might rule one or more of them out.

I read about a Taoist that was fed up with society and decided to move into the countryside where he would not be bothered by the ins and outs of life and he was eaten by a tiger.

See I would have fed the tiger, or eaten it myself.

10+ days later, FDA chief remains. Which means Durbin ought to resign immediately. Just on the principle of things.
