E-cigarette bans are absurd

Check out this article onPolicyMic, which fully dismantles the criticism of e-cigs. And full disclosure: I wrote it. Thoughts?

I think you wrote a very well written piece. One thing I'd suggest though, is perhaps to take a look into the conflict of interest within in FDA, when regarding what is approved and not. Attacked and not. Things like that. I can't bring up any concrete details about why the FDA might be freaking out over this product, and would never approve it (other than common sense, the FDA being a government entity, and Big tobacco supplying beaucoup bucks in tax revenue to the government).

The FDA, has, in fact, lost its way on other issues, like the use of Antidepressants in children, and their approval in general. You do a little digging and you find out that the FDA basically murdered thousands of people by lack of disclosure about the suicide risks of Prozac. The entire system was corrupt because those running and overseeing the trial has major financial interests in Prozac getting the FDA approval.

But now I'm getting off track :silent:

My point is, that your article could benefit strongly from some deep investigation into the issue of monetary vs actual public safety interests in the FDA regarding e-cigs, tobacco, and succession products. If there's concrete evidence out there that you can get your hands on, you could literally rock the media on this issue man.

Benson, very good! It is so good I am posting a link to it on The Vaporium's FB page for customers there to read. It is my local vape shop and as I am helping to admin their page I try and find articles to share. Feel free to "like" their page and share info you got on it as well.

I would concur with other comments regarding the FDA, there is a real threat to the establishment posed by eCigs, and that is why the attacks. It is sad that these really work and ignorance may be what keeps people from quitting, and the misinformation by others!
