E-cigarettes don’t lead to the real thing

A pretty good article overall, but still so ignorant -- in the 2nd paragraph, they use the term "e-smoking", and in the 4th paragraph, "e-cigarette smoking"... that really chafes my hide, since it tends to imply that vaping is just another form of smoking... when there is NO SMOKE, PERIOD.

At least someone is getting it:

E-cigarettes could be making it easier for young people who had previously smoked to quit, or it could be preventing would-be cigarette smokers from ever starting as they opt instead for e-cigarettes.

Although their enforcement has been delayed, regulations in a recent rule would threaten to drive e-cigarettes from the market before the implications of that exit are fully understood. The FDA should avoid rushing to enforce rules that could derail or slow the substantial progress in diminishing youth smoking.

They do lead to a spending addiction though in many cases ;)
Meh. In the long run, it's darn near impossible to spend more than on cigs. My "counter" is showing $15,519 saved and that's at 2013 cig prices. I own a boatload of hand-made squonk mods and original atties, and I have a lifetime's worth of nic in cold storage, yet I've spent less than what I would have if I'd continued to smoke.

But you might live longer and spend more than if you had died from smoking?
