This is worth repeating: the nation's federal regulatory agency with jurisdiction over cigarettes is not sure that smoking - which kills more than 400,000 Americans each year - is any more dangerous than vaping, which involves no tobacco and no combustion and has not been shown to cause any harm. The FDA is not convinced that inhaling nicotine plus tens of thousands of chemicals and more than 60 known human carcinogens is any worse than inhaling nicotine plus propylene glycol and low levels of a few other chemicals.

Let’s keep the short and sweet and talk about . What this means is Pennsylvania isstarting the year in the hole, or in the red. They’ve budgeted more money than they actually have and are trying to find ways to make up for it. Among many of their genius (obviously sarcasm) ideas of making up for this budget deficit is to put a sin tax on electronic cigarettes.

Overall Summary

One possible answer appears in Wride's column. She writes:

The rest of the story is that in yet another area of tobacco control science, the Surgeon General's report is providing a biased view of the scientific evidence.

The Congressmembers are wrong even on that score. The MSA clearly defines a cigarette as a product that contains tobacco. Electronic cigarettes do not contain tobacco. Thus, they do not meet the MSA's definition of a cigarette.
