I agree, no smoking in public places where taxpayers must enter to conduct government business. A bar, restaurant, a private club are open to the public, but are not publically owned. The business owner can evict someone at will. No one is forced to enter to conduct business of any kind. They should be able to make the decision to enter a business or not of their own free will. The same goes for employees, no one is forced to work anywhere, they too may choose their work conditions. I am strongly opposed to special interest groups manipulating legislation to get the full force of government to enforce their private agenda. If the state had a true interest, they would simply ban the sale and use of cigarettes or other tobacco products. It is government insanity to make laws against using a legal product in public. Doesn't government have enough to do without outlawing the use of a legal product? My next issue is the use of limited tax dollars for Smoking Quit Lines and aiding smokers in quiting smoking. The states do not make drug use treatment free except for the very poor or those in prison for their drug related issues. If smokers want to quit, let them do it on their own dime. Tobacco Free is stealing limited resources from schools, public safety, real health care and other basic mandated state services. There are huge foundations ready, willing and able to fund this private agenda. In short, stop the slow but creeping police state that allows special interest for their own private agenda or profit from stealing business owers' full use and investment in their private businesses and stop squandering state excise tax revenue on social engineering. The War on Drugs & The War on Poverty have wasted billions of dollars and after forty years, we have more drug addicts and more people living in poverty. The War on Tobacco is equally as costly and damned foolish too. Stop the madness! I think there are a couple of things wrong with this article.

]]> Comment on FDA Can’t Regulate E-Cigarettes by Robert http://www.cigarettesflavours.com/electronic-cigarettes/fda-cant-regulate-e-cigarettes/comment-page-1/#comment-267 Robert Wed, 23 Jun 2010 06:42:32 +0000 http://www.cigarettesflavours.com/?p=2934#comment-267 And e-cigs causing respiratory problems differ from real cigarettes how? Please..... It;s all about the money tobacco companies lose. Tobacco smoking is the worst discovery of all times. I finally quit after 20 years of smoking cigarettes thanks to e-cigs, (i wont mention the brand). I have not had a cigarrette in over 2 months. But I wasn't a slow smoker. I was smoking 2+ packs per day. And I've been known to put down almost 5 packs in a single day, and all I heard was the typical disclaimer... "Well, we tell you it's bad for you, you have a choice" Yeah, they tell me crack is bad for me too, but they dont push it in every go* d*mn convenience store across the US... Tobacco companies didnt seem to notice I was slowly running out of breath a little more everyday, nor did the FDA, and now you want to ACT like you give a crap?? Tobacco is more addictive than cocaine. I bet you anything if cocaine was sold at every store like cigarettes, no one would be able to quit cocaine either. Now I hit my e-cig a few times a day, im saving money while doing it and I am feeling a little better every day. And I curse the day tobacco companies came into middle school and got me hooked on smoking. They took my money for over 20 years, which is less than half the amount of time they figure a young kid will smoke before dying of emphysema, or other related diseases.. Tobacco companies should shut down operations now or be made to pay for every smoker's health problem until they are bankrupt. Tobacco growers can start growing something else.. Corn for ethanol, soy, grapes, lettuce, whatever... And stop killing us NOW! And e-cigs causing respiratory problems differ from real cigarettes how?
