Ehhhhhh alcohol is nowhere near as dangerous as cigarettes. The point of labelling cigarettes is that they're so exceptional dangerous.

What I've learned over the past five years is that you have to be very careful with this kind of mandate, or it will make people despise and doubt your whole organization. I actually think that this kind of warning label will increase the amount of cancer people get, because they'll start smoking cigarettes again, which are much worse.
Edit: To clarify, the reason people would start smoking cigarettes is not because it's an alternative to alcohol; it's because they would lose faith in health and safety warnings altogether. It's stupid, but people are stupid.
Yes please. Sick of the double standard. Can't buy flavoured nicotine anymore but can still buy sickeningly flavoured liquor.
It's called flavored moonshine, and it's art
It's poison, quite literally. State sponsored leathal posion. But it makes money and it's legal, so it's very cool.
I have no problem with that. We should be aware of the risks involved with our vices.
Can we do all petroleum products too?
this product is causing mass extinction of an estimated X thousand species
Labels need to be on all food, too, in the US of A. All of our food is cancerous.
Please correct this, not all of your food, all of the food sold by industrial outfits, even as bio-organic industrial products. If there is one place in the planet you can live without this it is the US, plenty of land, few people, plenty of resources to afford healthy nutrition. Compare it with hell holes like the Netherlands that have higher population density than Queens NY and there is not a square inch left to grow anything to eat, let alone in an artificial dried up swamp toxins have no means of draining off.
