156. Big tobacco

Fri Mar 7, 2014, 12:23 PM

Mar 2014

Big tobacco only has 5 brands on the market, there are over 250 cig look alike companies. And far more that make next generation
personal vaporizers that don't even look like cigarettes.
Big tobacco only jumped on the band wagon in 2013, e-cigs have been out for 10 years, since 2009 here in the US. There are hundreds and hundreds of factories in china that make the different generations of e-cigs. So no they don't control any market, and no they are not trying to normalize any thing, people that are using them are quitting smoking using them, and there are those that were hard core smokers and those that didn't want to quit smoking at all. They are saving lives every day. 14 million e-cigarette users around the world no longer smoking dangerous toxic cigarettes.

Everyone should be happy for these people that they are no longer smoking. But no.
