sasetrase Posted February 22, 2012 Share Posted February 22, 2012 Great info there. I am going to look into organizations that do promote E-cig use. I have been doing advocacy/ low level lobbying for a long time with birth control and sex education. I might just start into E-cigs as it is something in my wheelhouse to some extent. I am by no means a lawyer or pro, but this could be a fun hobby...although I do believe we need something/one that treats it more than a hobby. I am sure once Joye, or another major producer gets HUGE in the US, and has a profit margin that can swing some weight they will fight, but for now most manufacturers, and retailers are simply not large enough to do anything. Mom and Pop are dying...and those are what E-cig users like, because they create a quality product, and can be trusted...but in this case it will bite us in the arse I fear.
