And that would be me. I quit smoking after 30 years and started vaping 2 years ago. I dropped cigarettes the day I started vaping and haven't gone back since. This stupid bill right here is going to kill the entire vaping industry worth many millions of dollars in tax revenue, wipe out small businesses, and drive people back to cigarettes.
Here we go again! Time to write your Representatives and Senators to tell them what you think. Five Republicans voted with the Democrats on this stupid bill.
It floors me that they’re trying to kill vaping at the behest of big tobacco, to “save the children.”
Don’t believe me? Teen smoking rates are in the single digit percentages for the first time in history. Teens aren’t moving from vaping to smoking, because smoking tastes like shit in comparison. Vaping is also 100x better for you, though not doing anything is obviously the healthiest option.
So who exactly is this protecting? Big Tobacco stockholders. The Republicans better not push this through in the Senate.
Make no mistake, they are losing money from vaping. People are quitting cigarettes to vape.
Compare how much people spend on cigarettes compared to how much people spend on vaping supplies. You only need one vaping device and a charger (and come coil refills)
Big Tobacco doesnt regulate the juice that is made, neither does the FDA. They are losing money.
They DO regulate the eliquids produced by their own company. There's been a moratorium on enforcing FDA policies on the vaping industry until the spring of this year. After that, the only products legal to sell are those that have already been approved by the FDA or have an open application.
There is a great deal of money being made in vaping for the big companies once other "companies" that have virtually no oversight are shuttered by the FDA. This would prevent the vitamin E/acetate cartridges that caused vaping deaths.
Vape shops mix their own liquids and flavors. That's were many people get them.
Also, like I said, ask anybody who is a former smoker what they spent more money on, cigarettes or vaping....95 percent of the time they spent more money on cigarettes.
Like I said, the days of vape shops doing that are coming to a close.
And the big companies know the tide is turning on cigarette users. More and more people are quitting altogether, with or without a vape alternative. The option is to lose the market altogether or make some more money.

And the government makes more money(taxes)off of tabacco sales.
This is retarded. Big Tobacco has HUGE stake in vaping products (ex: Vuse, Vibe, Solo, Harmony).
This is just an overreaction that makes the least popular Congress look like it has accomplished something.

Sounds as dumb as sugar bans and laws regulating the size of soda cups
Democrats are driven by big tobacco lobby money, and looks like some of the Republicans caught the cash, too.
That sucks
