Some of you may remember the twitter lashing we gave the City of #Chicago back in January over their indoor use ban. Now, our efforts have been immortalized in the annals of politically motivated “science”.
Without getting into too much detail, it’s important to point out that the authors of this study have grossly misrepresented the definition of “astroturfing” by warping it to include citizen lobbying. Yes, there are vaping advocates here that have joined twitter for the sole purpose of participating in the daily action plan. That’s fine, and frankly the internet doesn’t really need anymore pictures of brunch or more opinions about what so-and-so was wearing at that awards show. If one of these tweets happens to land you a conversation with a policy maker (in any medium) then it’s a success.

But seriously folks,
Philadelphia Councilmember Blondell Reynolds Brown has introduced a bill that would levy insane taxes on vapor products sold within the city limits. It would appear that the only creative solution she has found to deal with the city’s budget woes is to inflict harm on vapers and future ex-smokers.
