Every one Please read this entire post before you reply to it. .
Sadly we have went about this advocacy thing completely wrong from day ONE.
I see it all the time from Vapors.
It is just water vapor BULL SHIT
The truth is it is not just water vapor.
There are only 4 ingredients VG/PG/Nic/flavor BULL SHIT
The truth is we really do not know what chemicals actually make up the flavors we use
It is safer than smoking BULL SHIT
There are not really any LONG TERM studies to prove this one way or another.
PG is safe to vape they use it in asthma medication. BULL SHIT
You can not compare them in any way. Asthma medicine is delivered and inhaled as a aerosol mist with no heat involved.
It saddens me to have to say this but the truth is the industry we all love needs REASONABLE REGULATION.so we can move forward with proper studies that prove what is considered a reasonable allowable risk for inhaled vapor created by heating a liquid to create vapor.
Now that I have that out of the way on to the subject of TAX
The reality is we are not going to get away without TAX being added. It is actually unreasonable of US to think we can. The fact is all the States and the Federal government TAX everything. That is how they get the funds to operate.
Please do not think I am for all of this BS we are seeing, I am NOT.
What I am saying is we have to adopt the mentality of fighting for REASONABLE REGULATION and REASONABLE TAXING
I watches a 3 part video series from P Busardo the other day. One of the guest he had on really nailed it with his political based rant about what I have posted above and it really hit home with just how WRONG we have been going about fighting this fight. Pat 1 is a review of a HIGH END mod and just a little touch on this subject.
Part 2 and 3 are definitely worth watching if you want to educate yourself on the facts about how wrong we have went about all of this.
Please, Please, Please educate yourself some before any further attempt’s at responding to any more calls to advocacy with Knowledge on the topic and not the BULL SHIT we have all been spotting of with so far in this fight we are fighting.
Here are the videos I mentioned and the guy I am talking about (Mike (ZEN) Morgan) paying attention to is from the Rochester NY area so this should hit home for all you New Yorkers but also for the rest of us.
