Thread: What happens in the real world when flavor bans are implemented
1. 'San Franciscoâs ban on flavored tobacco product sales was associated with increased smoking among minor high school students relative to other school districts.'

Having had a night to mull over yesterday's hearing, I would absolutely love to have a sit down with RFK Jr. These tobacco companies are still hell-bent on killing people for a profit. Out of 7 million PMTA applications, 36 got approved. All from big tobacco.

Speaking of fiscal impropriety, @DOGE @elonmusk, few know the 1998 Tobacco Master Settlement Agreement never expires. Itâs a fiscal dumpster đĽ fireâstates botched Big Tobacco billions, burned on crap. Not about kidsâ˘âvaping threatens revenue hocked to Wall St. cronies. Bondsâll scream when due.

Oh, @FDATobacco grabs $712M in âuser feesâ yearly, âoutside Congressional control.âđ
CPT @FDATobacco's Brian King takes questions from
@michaelcburgess:
FDA receives 712 đ° million dollars a year...
"User fees" are paid by tobacco manufacturers....
"Outside of Congressional control"...
"It takes Congress out of the loop"...
"Members of Congress, House, and Senate are supposed to have the oversight..."

Congratulations on your appointment as SBA Administrator, @SBA_Kelly! Your commitment to reducing excessive regulation and supporting Main Street businesses is encouraging.
I hope you'll take a serious look at the harm done to independent vape businessesâcompanies that have done honorable work helping millions of adults switch away from deadly smoking. This industry wasnât just saving lives; it was also reducing the nationâs healthcare burden and contributing billions to the economy.
Before the FDA weaponized regulations to de facto ban vaping, this was a thriving sector that supported tens of thousands of jobsânot just in manufacturing and retail, but also in shipping, packaging, printing, logistics, warehousing, utilities, real estate, advertising, and more. The impact of its destruction has rippled across multiple industries.
Small businesses deserve a fair shot, not regulatory overreach designed to eliminate them. With a new administration focused on cutting red tape, it's time to undo the damage and bring back real economic opportunity for harm reduction businesses.

"The differences between the new and corresponding predicate products do not cause the new products to raise different questions of public health from a chemistry perspective."
In other words, these new cigarettes will kill you just as efficiently as prior cigarettes.
from the FDA SE approval of Marlboro Blend 27 100's:
"The applicant provided the smoke yields of tar, nicotine, and carbon monoxide (TNCO), carbonyls (i.e., formaldehyde, acetaldehyde, acrolein, and crotonaldehyde), volatile organics (i.e., acrylonitrile, isoprene, benzene, 1,3-butadiene and toluene), ammonia, benzo[a]pyrene, N-nitrosonornicotine (NNN), and 4-[methyl(nitroso)amino]-1-(3-pyridinyl)-1-butanone (NNK) for the new and corresponding predicate products for SE0016868. PD1, SE0016964. PD1, SE0016996.PD1 - SE0016999.PD1, and SE0017241.PD1 under ISO and Cl smoking regimens.
They also provided appropriate method validation information. TOST& analyses of HPHC data indicates that the HPHC data are statistically equivalent or non-equivalent but lower.
Therefore, the differences in characteristics between the new and corresponding predicate products do not cause the new products to raise different questions of public health from a chemistry perspective."

The FDA is protecting cigarettes over the health of the American people, and this needs to stop.

I got to say, reading that whole revelation from Grok, if accurate, is a testament to how morally bankrupt our government has become. Propaganda however you slice it, is just plain lies. Would anyone stay in a relationship of pure fabrication?
Don't just take his word for it, run it by Grok, to see how @MikeBenzCyber's Lecture relates to all things government - even health care

Today, at the MSG New York rally, @realDonaldTrump said that he will be turning health agencies over to @RobertKennedyJr, who has pledged to ban pharmaceutical ads on television
This secures my vote, Mr Trump

The number one preventable death in America. Time to stand up people and demand that Vape products get approved quickly. Combustible Tobacco must die and Not our wonderful US citizens.

đ¨ 20 million Americans dead from smoking since 1964.
If Koop were an actual military general and had presided over a battlefield where 20 million of his own troops diedâdespite clear, actionable intelligence on how to prevent those deathsâhe wouldnât be celebrated. Heâd be court-martialed.
Public health failed by pushing abstinence over harm reductionâlike a general refusing to equip his soldiers with better armor, insisting they should simply not get shot. Koopâs war wasnât against smokingâit was against nicotine, letting Big Tobacco keep its grip while sabotaging safer alternatives like vaping.
Obamaâs Tobacco Control Act (TCA) in 2009 handed the FDA the keys while 300,000 Americans were dying every year from smoking. In 2016, the FDA locked the door on harm reduction, protecting Big Tobacco and ensuring millions more deaths.
Koop set the stage for failure. Adams and Murthy doubled down, watching the body count pile up while actively sabotaging vaping.
And now? Nearly 480,000 Americans die from smokingâevery single year. Almost half a million deaths, in America alone.
WTAF are our âSurgeon Generalsâ doing?
"Top Doc?" I think not.

When the comparison is cigarettes, vaping isnât just saferâitâs magnitudes less harmful.
Cigarettes contain hydrogen cyanide, a chemical used in chemical warfare and pest control.
If vaping had anything remotely like this, they'd never shut up about it.

Itâs SOP for industry to have Goliath nonprofits doing their dirty work. These groups provide a veneer of legitimacy while pushing policies that ultimately serve corporate interests. The Partnership for a Healthier America is no differentâjust another cog in the machine of pharma and Big Food influence.
Campaign for Tobacco-Free Kids (CTFK) is another prime exampleâfounded by the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation, an astroturf arm of Johnson & Johnson, to protect Big Pharmaâs nicotine monopoly. CTFK doesnât just lobby against non-pharma alternatives to smoking; they actively train lawmakers on how to legislate against harm reduction while advising them on maximizing cigarette tax revenues, as if theyâre partners with Big Tobacco.
Watch CTFKâs Jodi Radke instructing Glenwood Springs on how to protect tobacco revenue while pushing a flavor ban, at the linked @X post.
This isnât about public health. Itâs about control, money, and protecting the interests of those who profit from smoking-related disease.

Hereâs the full 23-minute testimony from Jodi Radke of CTFK to Glenwood Springs City Council in 2019.
Itâs a masterclass in fear-driven advocacyâtargeting vaping under the guise of 'health,' while shielding cigarettes. â Watch closely for the tactics.
Later tonight, Iâll share a breakdown cutting through the spin. đ

Does it feel like the world is finally ready to learn the truth about Nicotine?
A feature-length documentary film about nicotine from an award-winning team? The timing couldn't be better. We're working on a wider release.

For those who followed the outbreak closely, the culprit (THC vapes) started to become pretty obvious in the latter half of August 2019.

Take the time to open the image in a separate tab.
You will notice that Vaping produces 5 times LESS particulates in room air than a single burning candle!
Nearly NINE times less than frying or sauteing food in oil ...

Re: Secondhand vapor disinformation đ¨
Data doesnât lie: E-cigs barely move the needle on indoor air pollution (β=0.05, p=0.698). Compare that to smoking (β=0.56) or frying food (β=0.43).
