if nicotine is so bad why?

[skoony]

if exhaled vapor with nicotine along with any minute
quantities of other things is considered by some as
akin to releasing saran gas in the subway station,
why are there not more people up and arms about
prescription medications in general?
every time you step into a building your breathing
in microscopic amounts of someone else's medicine.
these amounts may even be minuscule compared to
vapor but,with an estimated 40% of the adult population
taking medicine what kind of dangerous combinations
of mixtures are we breathing? how long and how much
of this medicinal cocktail does it take to do harm?
just wondering.

Mike, that is right up there with how many licks does it take to get to the center of a Tootsie Pop. True observation though. The answer may have to do with the government and big tobacco can't collect on microscopic amounts of someone else's medicine but they can "nicotine". Happy vaping to you. And thanks, you just gave me reason #69 to stay in my recliner.

CASSA states on their brochure that nicotine is no more harmful than caffeine. Not that it really matters to me, I feel vaping is still a healthier alternative to smoking 4000 chemicals.

In my opinion, any nicotine you get from second hand vape clouds should be treated as a gift
