![]() FDA wrong about e-cigarettes, says FDA study. So what justification is there for distorting the evidence and deceiving the public about a product that has the potential to save lives? There isn’t any. This is nothing more than scare mongering on the part of the opportunistic health nannies at the FDA and their shills in the media. Government anti-smoking efforts not as effective as first thought. There is evidence, again ignored by the CDC, that little to no connection exists between state spending on tobacco control and the degree to which residents smoke. ![]() Beer, Wine, and Spirits Tax: State Budgets Get Boost from Alcohol Tax Increases... will lawmakers be willing to stand up to the powerful lobbying of Big Alcohol? Kreepy Killer Kornflakes! By Michael J. McFadden. The news story below is factual. It is not a satire. It is not made up. It is about a real study in the Journal of the American College of Cardiology which found that eating a bowl of cornflakes induces the same sort of "threat" to the heart as Otsuka et al found in their famous "30 Minute Heart Attack" studies. MN: How successful have ban laws been in the Twin Cities area? MO: Premium Cigar Store Owners Unite to Fight Proposed St. Louis County Ban... minorities have rights and smokers are a minority. NY: Aiming Wide in City War on Smoking, disgusting displays in stores. IN that case, how about taking this approach even further? Why stop with cigarettes? SD: State says NO and smoking ban is back on hold. Czech Republic: Clarify smoking legislation but total ban still long way off. As any visitor to Prague already knows, smokers are mostly free to light up anywhere and anytime they want in Czech bars, pubs and restaurants. Denmark: Smokers: The war is in progress. Soren HĂžjbjerg may well understand that you can be bothered by the smell when you are not themselves smoke. But on the other hand, one can not expect that you will never feel anything from a neighbor. | |||
