New study has some very interesting information on e-cig users

Sorry to disagree with their study, but from prowling around several vaping sites I find that most Vapors are over 30 (many way over like me) married or in a commited relashionships, working full time or own their own business or are retired. They have children and or grandchildren. The vast majority seem to be active in at least one social/political cause and are overall well informed and of above average in the common sense dept. Vapers are also highly motivated to turn smokers, both family and the general population into ex-smokers and to do so because it will save lives! Not a bad group to hang with wouldn't you say? Keep on vaping on

I know right.
But.... shhhhhhhhhh!
I get the feeling the survey is bent towards who should be the next group of socially bashed people to tax higher.
Xboxes shall now include a $300.00 tax, video games a $50.00 sin tax" single people sin taxed for still experimenting around, couches at parents houses shall be sin taxed by the month, ....
They did and still do these surveys with smokers, not for insight to help, but for insights on who and how to bash in order to get the dumb and dumber masses to agree to vigilante sin tax them. If the surveys were to help, free smoking cessation products, health spas, gyms, college, etc, would have been heavily discounted or provided free in certain circumstances, etc.
The whole idea was to take advantage of the "addicted", the minorities, the poor, ($60.00 for a pack of two cent gum), and to have someone to "hate" with the blessings of their dumb and dumber brigade rooting them on.

Didn't the ECF study look at some of these questions?

Lower income? Wonder if that happens when a product is less expensive than traditional.
I tried vaping with the hopes of saving $.

And idk about nicotine being an appetite suppressant. I've gained weight since I quit smoking cigarettes 8 months ago. Of course there are many different causes but I'm hungry even when I vape. And that wasn't really the case when I smoked cigs

It's the regeneration of the taste buds. Foods just taste better.

Well I'm happily married, and I wear a ring, though my husband doesn't (not with the machines he deals with at work!!) rarely ever go out to do anything at all, and we make even less (considerably!) than the study indicates. Could it be, I can't afford to go out OR smoke cigarettes? Wow there's a newsflash. Would never ever live with my parents again (because somebody would get dead if I did!), and I've never played a video game in my life, except Ms Pacman out at the mall, back in the 80s. Which was probably before the authors of that study were even BORN.

I believe I've seen a quote that the leading cause of cancer is statistics.
