IN MY VIEW: Proposed FDA Tobacco Product Safety Standards Make No Sense, and Have No Confirmed Connection with Safety

Here is a challenge question for everyone out there.

Below are two lists of chemical ingredients in cigarettes and tobacco smoke. The first list is a partial, current list of ingredients and constituents. The second list is the same, but has 20 hazardous chemicals removed.

In a sense, this is a simulation of what the proposed strategy that is being promoted to make cigarettes safer through the FDA legislation would look like. The FDA would be given the authority to choose specific ingredients and require their reduction or elimination.

Let us assume, under a best case scenario, that the FDA is able to get through regulations that would eliminate 20 of the hazardous chemicals in cigarettes.

Here is the question:

How much safer is the second group of chemicals than the first group? What would the relative risk for lung cancer be if cigarettes contained the second list of chemicals, rather than the first list? How about the relative risk for emphysema? The relative risk for heart disease?

Since the anti-smoking groups supporting the FDA legislation claim that the bill would require cigarette companies to make their products safer, I assume that they will be able to answer this question.

I'll give these groups until Friday to respond. I'll report back on Friday with the responses that I receive.

How much safer will cigarettes be if we can knock out a whopping 20 of the hazardous ingredients?

The Rest of the Story

This example shows how absurd the regulatory approach taken by the FDA legislation is. The reality is that the FDA is not going to know whether or not its proposed changes to cigarette components are going to make cigarettes safer or not. So the FDA is going to use smokers as guinea pigs to figure that out. Now that may be fine; however, in the mean time, people are going to be given the implied message that cigarettes are safer. In other words, the fraud that the tobacco companies were found guilty of committing against American consumers by implying a safer product without documentation will now be transferred over to the United States government.

I don't think we want any part of this regulatory scheme.
