Think I got that right. Maybe I jiggled the letters around.What's PMTA?
True, BUT, the FDA has, in the past made monsterous mistakes and blunders. In this case the FDA, by their own admission has no idea what vaping is or how it works but is storming full speed ahead to kill an altirnative to smoking and smoking cessation. Who will reap the money back by the bucket, BIG P and BIG T, not to discount the resulting bump in taxes. So much for the health of the citizens, the bottom line for drug companies, tobacco companies, and goverment a big bump at the cost of 480,000 lives anually. How long before the FDA death toll excedes that of Hitler and the Holocost.Shutting down the FDA would be a BIG mistake as they have done a LOT of good in the field of food safety and quite a bit in the area of drug safety as well.
We've got a BINGO. Big Money from Big P, Big Money from Big T is pushing the murder of a industry and using the People's Government to do it. Pharma is not known for playing "fair", does anyone remember the cancer drug that went from 7.00 to over 350.00 per pill, the CEO of the drug company was "damned" by the media so he saw the light and reduced the price to 300.00. There are more examples you just have to look a little bit, it's way under reported in the media.If you think Pfizer or Glaxo Smith Kline-Welcome is just going to let a 10 dollar bottle of juice be mentioned in the same breath as Chantix, etc.. as a viable smoking cessation, your crazy. They have invested tens of millions of dollars to monopolize this market, and they will fight tooth and nail, with VERY deep pockets to make sure vaping is seen as just as dangerous as smoking. The A.L.A. is using tax dollars (from cigs of all things) to spread disinformation about vaping because they need to be viable to keep in business. Powerful forces are against the vaping industry, besides the "save the children" nanny state dumbocrats. Just wait until the tax issue hits next. That same 10 dollar bottle of juice is going to $30.00+ minimum. Vape is a tobacco product, right? (ugh...)
Yep it was really for flavored REAL tobacco products.I read somewhere that, because it was the White House who pulled the (stuff about flavors) out, there was nothing to stop the FDA re-inserting it after Aug. 8th.
Found it. I read it here...http://www.vapingpost.com/2016/06/03/vaping-bans-fail-or-face-challenges-but-fda-assault-continues/
The exact wording was...
"What’s worrying many vapers is that while the flavour ban doesn’t appear in the final version of the regulations, it wasn’t removed by the FDA themselves – the White House’s Office of Management and Budget took it out. There’s nothing to stop the FDA reinserting it after the law goes active on the 8th of August, so the end of vapingin the USA could be even closer than feared."
But I don't think pulling the language out was meant to help *us* - it was meant to help Big Tobacco who are practically the only entities with enough money to go through the PMTA process. Now they'll be able to offer us flavored crap products in addition to the normal tobacco/menthol crap products.
they have been notoriously pushing deadly medications without adequate studies that have killed 100s of thousands of people.. and when they know how damaging some meds are they withdraw the meds and sneak them back onto the market.. do some research pleaseShutting down the FDA would be a BIG mistake as they have done a LOT of good in the field of food safety and quite a bit in the area of drug safety as well.
Yep but they have still done a lot of good.they have been notoriously pushing deadly medications without adequate studies that have killed 100s of thousands of people.. and when they know how damaging some meds are they withdraw the meds and sneak them back onto the market.. do some research please
