If vaping is so bad why did the FDA allow e-cig commercials on T.V.?

So essentially, government made vaping a drug or legal to buy 18 or 21 way. Meh, good and bad. Honestly, nicotine should be treated as caffeine after vaping made it safer.

It's like the debate with marijuana and alcohol drinkers. The marijuana lobby is so strong that they make you only think it's the best drug over all other drugs because they were put together with Schedule 1 Narcotics drugs. The alcohol drinkers and non-drinkers call marijuana a gateway drug. And guess what? The marijuana lobby are winning.

These battles are as old as time and just deatroy basic freedoms.

Forty years ago, you didn't see TV commercials for lawyers, doctors, nor pharmaceuticals. Deregulation mania struck, some bozos decided to deregulate those and many other things along the way.
And, the same bozos have decided to declare war on vaping.

They are still showing pod vape pen commercials here in Colorado!

Just a stray thought! I wonder how many of the representatives and senators that voted for this ban, accepted "contributions" (read bribes) from the big cigarette companies? Shouldn't that be a conflict of interest for them to vote for the ban?

Funny Twist on things...

"Harm reduction" advertising[edit]

Some tobacco companies have sponsored ads that claim to discourage teen smoking. Such ads are unregulated. However, these ads have been shown, in independent studies, to increase the self-reported likelihood that teens will start smoking. They also cause adults to see tobacco companies as more responsible and less in need of regulation. Unlike promotional ads, tobacco companies do not track the effects of these ads themselves. These ads differ from independently produced antismoking ads in that they do not mention the health effects of smoking, and present smoking as exclusively an "adult choice", undesirable "if you're a teen".[1]:190–196

Tobacco companies have also funded "anti-smoking" groups. On such organization, funded by Lorillard, enters into exclusive sponsorship agreements with sports organisations. This means that no other anti-smoking campaigns are allowed to be involved with the sporting organisation. Such sponsorships has been criticised by health groups.[3]

There is more exposure to industry-sponsored "antismoking" ads than to antismoking ads run by public health agencies.[1]:189

As usual, follow the money and the scheme begins to unravel.
