Here is a link to a couple of tax proposals that were presented to congress in Jan./2013.
Federal Bills Would Subtantially Increase Tobacco Taxes and Allow New Taxes on Electronic Cigarettes — Troutman Sanders Tobacco Team
I'm sure most of here knew this was coming. I, like many here have concerns about the level of taxation on e-cigs.

- If taxes are too high or are unrealistic, It will stop a number of smokers from switching to e-cigs. Example; Some pre-filled cartridges indicate they are equivalent to so many packs of cigs (lets say 2 packs). Now tax that cartridge as if it were two packs. I'm not going to pay $15 for a cart when I can get a pack of smokes for half, or even less if I make a run out to the reserve.
- How do they tax juice? Do they have some formula that says that 1ml of juice is equal to X number of cigs. E-juice is probably going to be forbidden for sale. They don't want us to DIY.
- I see taxation as the biggest threat to vaping.
