First, sorry if this is posted in the wrong section, or if it belongs on ECF at all.

This just makes me so incredibly angry to think the people in government and government agencies entrusted to "protect us" dropped the ball big time, BIG TIME. If you eat, this affects you. Follow the science my ..... More like follow the money that lines your pockets.

And yet, a product like ecigs that are actually helping to save people's lives gets bashed from every angle. Nice area for them to focus their efforts instead of something that really matters. As a smoker I was harming myself. This harms everyone who eats. Doesn't matter what.

Gotta love this little tidbit:

There have also been legislative measures attempted in the U.S. House and Senate, though none have been successful so far thanks to massive amounts of lobbying by the agricultural and pharmaceutical industries, which claim that all the science that has repeatedly tied drugs in animal feed to an increase in drug-resistant bacteria just isn’t there.
