I'm not from Europe but I still signed it because this effects all of us. We cannot stand by and watch them take away our liberties, one by one. I'm hoping that with having a
tobacco company owning Blu and R J Reynolds entering the arena, we will finally be gaining the heavy hitters we need on our side. Most of you may know how important it is to have big
tobacco on our sides, but for those of us who don't and are now looking at me as if I were wearing a tin foil hat, big
tobacco is one of the only industries powerful enough to be able to take on big pharma, where our real obstacles lie. With tobacco companies starting to invest into electronic cigarettes, they also go from looking at our industry as a threat to their business, to looking at our industry AS business, and that is also a good thing.
