Huffington Post on e-cigs
by lars on 12/02/2011The Huffington Post has an article on e-cigs called <a href="http://www view it now.huffingtonpost.com/2011/02/11/are-ecigarettes-evil_n_821883.html”>Are E-Cigarettes Evil? – It’s a good read, and the comments on the article are even better. So many well informed people. I fear, though, that they are fighting a losing battle against the anti-smoking lobby, Big Pharma, Big Tobacco and the government. Apart from the rediculously fanatic anti-smokers, they all have LOTS of money to lose.
I love one of the comments, “…nicotine is a fairly harmless drug, with the world’s worst delivery system…but from on high it has been decided to focus on eliminating it rather than changing the delivery system ti minimize the harm it does” and “[smokers] are not allowed information that can greatly reduce their risk“.
The powers that be in the USA (I hope it stays contained there), have their minds set to eliminating the lesser evil. Not that e-cigs are evil in any important way.
