(45,319 posts)You keep repeating it. You never support it. It's about product placement. It burns you that people are quitting smoking with some assistance, I understand that.
In the adoptee thread, your anecdotal tales were asserted as valid forms of communication, but of course that was your anecdote, not that of another, so obviously it is superior.
If you sell a product for 'smoking cessation' you can not sell it next to cigarettes. If you wish to provide an option to smokers, you want your option next to the cigarettes.
These laws protect tobacco companies, the laws that say 'no options next to us'.
Other entities and governments are doing large studies which you can later dismiss for being not being American, but the world is a small place these days, and other nations see a health benefit as worth pursuing, so they are pursuing. You can not stop them from doing so, nor from sharing what they learn with the world. Get ready to discredit on the basis of 'not US made study, FDA, FDA!!!!'
