Apparently the Chinese have an ANTZ problem too, people too stupid to actually study REAL SCIENCE, or to be able to tell real science from ideological ranting. But frankly I have a hard time imagining the Chinese gov't doing the slightest thing to quash their market lead on e-cig technology, even with stupid people saying stupid things about them.

I don't think we have to worry about China. That article came from Hong Kong so I doubt the People's Republic cares much what they think.

My brain hurts and so does my heart. I truly did not want to see the day that I would actually think about stocking up. [...] Who knows what is going to happen down the road? I really hope this will all be for naught. I figure do one order this month and another in a couple of months etc...
I've been doing that since roughly 2 weeks after I managed to quit smoking (something I thought I would never be able to do). I now have 13 years worth of nic base in my freezer and I still add to it regularly. I sincerely hope I never have to touch it, but there's a certain sense of serenity in having it, knowing they will never be able to make me go back to smoking, or bring out the Mr. Hyde in me that nicotine suppresses.

It flipping amazing that the US is in the process of legalizing {other stuff} yet they want to ban ejuice...
They won't ban it per se. They'll just "regulate" it and tax it to the point where nobody will want it. For our own good of course.

You need to pay attention to who you vote for!!
Every single one of them SEEKS to govern us. For our own good, of course. :facepalm:

Isn't regulating it basically going to be banning it, except for those large corporations that can afford to go through all the hoops of regulation? I know a lot of business owners in other types of businesses who have closed their doors due to regulations during the past 6 years.

I only have about 5 years worth, but if I successfully reduce consumption, that could be stretched a bit. I also have a Mr. Hyde, nobody wans to meet Mr. Hyde, he can be quite unpredictable! :evil: I'd be willing to bet that there are more than a few Mr. Hyde's out there :D

    I bought a bunch of 125ml bottles from them at 100% PG and just plopped them in the freezer.
    Like you, I hope I never touch them again.

    If I ever do have to touch them, it remains to be seen if I will add any flavoring.
    After finally trying some unflavored, I agree with everyone who says it's pretty good by itself.

    It's just a matter of how lazy I will be if that time ever comes.
    :laugh:

    I wasn't going to touch mine either ..... until I found that I like mine better than any I could buy. Simply because I mix mine the way I want them to taste instead of them mixing them the way they think I want them to taste.

    I find a lot of vendor juice is made with cheap peppery nic base ... I can avoid that with DIY.

    They think there is a problem with the Arowana black market..HA!

    They do not have clue!

    I personally know a vape shop owner who is stock piling the "essentials" and will offer his mixology services under the table if need be!

    All prohibition or heavy taxation will produce is yet another avenue of corruption and crime!

    As mentioned in a few posts previously, be wise who you vote for, learn how to DIY, and prepare!

    It doesn't take a fortune to stock pile for yourself, this is not food or water and essentially does not take up a ton of space if you have a deep freezer.

    There is more to this that just ignorant politicians, there are politicians as always on the take from big pharma, and big tobacco...

    The bill (s) they are considering in California are sponsored by the American Heart Association, Lung Association, and at least one pharmaceutical company that I remember!

    While people in the U.S. are "outraged" and this and that, we also as people have been intentionally un-unified by government influneces, because there is power in unity, and numbers.

    If people do not put all their differences aside and start to realize who the real enemies are and become unified, our governing bodies will do whatever they want.

    Before WWII there was no federal income tax; do you all realize that today there are over 1000 plus various taxes that did not exist 100 years ago!

    Indeed we are losing not only our freedoms, and liberties, but eventually our way of life as we know it!

    The only resolve is to work towards getting real representation in your local and state elected officials!

    It's obvious we have no control over the BIG Federal Goverment...What happened to "We the People"...really sad to see this happening!

    Why was this censored? I said nothing bad or offensive? I did not use fowl language. Are we in China? Who did this and why?

    Good!

    Of course it will, and those who seek to govern us know this. Guess who benefits from the corruption, and whose power grows when voters believe they need to be protected from "crime"?

    Of course!

    It's all a game of cat and mouse, keeping the people ununified and in a state of some need!

    It is so unfortunate that Martin Buber, a well know modern / contemporary philosopher who said "The masses are asses" was so correct!
    (1878-1965)

    People will not awake from the fog and as I say it is indeed very sad!

    We had a revolution over what England had imposed on us as colonists; Taxation without Representation.

    People who say "History Repeats Itself" can mean many things, in the regards to how we live, no I highly doubt there will be another revolution anytime soon, we as a people are much too dysfunctional and disconnected and mostly ununified!

    But things ending the ways they have been for over 100 years is coming much too fast!

    I think it wouldn't take a great deal more outrage from The Authorities before a group of people somewhere in America decides they've had enough. People are angry everywhere; cops shooting people and getting away with it, even regular people doing it and getting away with it; this country is seething with angry, completely- or mostly-disenfranchised, drugged-up (whether licitly or otherwise) people with guns, who are getting more and more tired and fed up with government oppression, and even government-by-bureaucracy; I really don't think it will take many more sparks before it ignites a bonfire.
