Never mind the fact that numerous studies have already been conducted, all finding e-cigs MILES healthier than regular cigarettes, the real insanity here is that e-cigs are being banned BECAUSE they’re better for you than smoking: If this were just a new brand of cigarette loaded with all the same deadly toxins and carcinogens, with disgusting smelly smoke that makes everyone uncomfortable, it would be allowed, no questions asked. But because it *will* extend your life exactly as much as giving up cigarettes would (as that’s exactly what it enables smokers to do), it becomes a medicinal product and as such it needs to be tightly controlled.

So while we wait for politicians to order the same studies that have already been performed and ignored many times elsewhere in the world, people keep dying. Thank God for government. After all, we wouldn’t want people to start saving their own lives, would we.

Thanks for your comment!

Maybe these comments do come from spammers – and if so, I am sorry for having approved them.

On the other hand, they do not contain links and they do appear to make valid points.

Reality behind this — “we don’t have it set to tax it enough yet so it is banned”

Typical government burecrat greed hidden as “health” issue.
