General Comment:I find the fact that the government want to regulate this business to be invasive to the betterment of the people.  i have smoke cigarettes for 40 yrs..  During this time I found out that I had a birth defect that required damage to y heart to repair.  In do the damage I could not stop using nicotine for fear from the Dr.s that my heart would not take the shock of quitting.  Vaping is my only alternative.  I get the minimal of nicotine without the chemicals of smoking.  For my government to regulate when and where I can get this and when and where I can use it is appalling to me. You didn't regulate cigarettes when I was growing up but you are ready to jump on the only way for me to survive now that you didn't do your job the first time.  Get the proof that vapor is bad, addictive, or harmful to the ones around you and prov e this to the public and I will be backing you.  To do what is being done at this time is nothing more than government taxation without representation.    A 75 day comment period is insufficient time for the vaping industry and the wider vaping community to comment on the proposed deeming regulations. I would respectfully request that the period for comment be extended to 180 days.
