I Hoped that we would have seen More Support from House and or Senate Members by now.

If it wasn't an election year, it's possible there'd have been more vocal support. But many of these yahoos are in a do or die situation and November isn't that far off. I doubt we'll see many flat out state that the FDA is full of it lest the ANTZ crowd paint them as being against denying those awful e-cigarettes to children. And from what I'm seeing in some races, they're going to be very close as it is.

Given that, do you think there's anything that can halt, or slow down, what vapers are looking at come Aug. 8?

It's possible. But I'm just Not Sure how many in Washington give a Darn about Vaper's?

I think, in Many People's eyes, we are Not Viewed as Ex-Smokers. Or have done anything to Improve our Health.

In fact the govt is spending a billion dollars in junk studies to craft exactly that public opinion of us.

You mean the "Data suggests a strong connection between candy flavored liquids and pedophilia." research studies?

Why the way the brainless majority works these days you don't need to "study" anything - you just have to "suggest" things. Once it hits FB everyone knows it's true. :facepalm:

Scientific Studies have shown that only 32.6% of people believe anything they read on FB. But 99.9% of the people will believe anything associated with the words study and science. Especially if reported by the "respectable" media...

Sadly that's because our millennials and younger have had the full benefit of an indoctrination instead of an education. I never realised how bad it was and how far reaching till I anxiously awaited minute by minute the Brexit vote. There was a rally supposed to be planned today in London called (sorry about this) "F... Brexit" I mean! Really??? How on earth can you argue logically with that sort of mentality?

I love the American Council on Science and Health (ACSH)

And especially Dr. Gilbert Ross.
That guy comes out swinging and pulls no punches.
:wub:

It's one of my (just) three daily reads. I agree - GREAT stuff (consistently too).

Yep, but unfortunately the site's admin seems to have it completely ACSH-backwards here...Casualties in the Opioid Abuse War, How Government May be Subsidizing E-Cigarettes, and More ACSH Media Links | American Council on Science and Health.

There is hardly anything settled or foreseeable beyond more monopoly consolidation by gov on the horizon and e-cigs subsidizing government (not the other way around). Right tho about…a whole lot of small companies soon to be wiped out of business…Sad.

Good luck. :)

I shook my head at that one too (nobody's perfect). Talk about over-analyzing...

More supposition applied there than we're used to seeing from those people.
