E-cigarette user growth will continue as the product is a less harmful to cigarettes. Approximately 42 million adult smokers is a huge market for e-cigarettes. Unfortunately, Sate government are in knee-jerk reaction mode to e-cigarettes. I don't agree with Bonnie Herzog who sees the answer as FDA regulations.
Isn't it the FDA that approves all of the medicines that have been killing people? And then they put out warnings not to take the pill that they had approved as safe six months before. I Don't trust the government at all. It only reacts to something and when it does it over reacts then has to turn around and go change back again.
And foods...
Disapproves whole foods and approves poison...
And hasn't turned that around on any grand scale because people are ignorant and literally eat it up.
McDonald's is approved, but whole milk isn't? Facepalm...

McDonalds has lots of money for the FDA to do a shakedown, Dairy farmers are barely breaking even, perhaps making a small profit.
Depends which dairy farmers.
My sister has been kicking around the idea of accepting an FDA grant to start a farm.
Problem is her kids have serious issues with processed/unnatural foods. It's the reason she grows and raises 90% of their foods.
After an FDA grant, the food that keeps them nourished is gone due to red tape that fuels big industry and the lie factory that keeps their monopolies rolling.
Organic would be no longer an option after the grant. Though FDAs poisonous depiction of organic would always be an option.
But the farmers that succumb barely break even on product, still. They make their profits in subsidies, grants and huge tax breaks.

I live in the outer suburbs about 2 miles from farm country in my state. My entire family gets dairy products from a small dairy farmer with 70 cows. They are all natural, no hormone dairy farmers. Almost 80% of their business is people like me and my extended family buying directly. Surprisingly, the prices are close to the stores, and sometimes even cheaper since there isn't a couple layers of middlemen to jack the price up. The dairy farmers (Michael and Missie) were going to join an organic coop, but didn't when they read the fine print and assessed association "fees" plus the state and feds dictating the rules.
I drank raw milk for the first 8 years of my life. No infections or sickness. The Ag department is just full of bovine excrement.
Truer words, my friend. Knowing what the processing results in for my son, it's disheartening to realize the great lengths it takes to obtain raw, non - government - tainted milk without owning cows and goats myself.

Funny thing, my Grandparents never drank processed milk or ate processed dairy products, same with my Dad and Mom. We always got out dairy products from someone they knew - a Dairy farmer, never from the store. Real Cottage Cheese is a hell of a lot different from the crap you buy in the stores, plus you can't make clabered milk dessert with pasteurized milk.
