Few laws are so effective that you can see results just days after they take effect.But in the nine days since the federal cigarette tax more than doubled-----to $1.01 per pack----smokers have jammed telephone “quit lines” across the country seeking to kick the habit.
This is not a surprise to public health advocates.They’ve studied the effect of state tax increases for years,finding that smokers,especially teens,are price sensitive.Nor is it a shock to the industry,which fiercely fights every tax increase.
The only wonder is that so many states insist on closing their ears to the message.Tobacco taxes improve public health,they raise money and most particularly,they deter people from taking up the habit as teens,which is when nearly all smokers are addicted.Yet the rate of taxation varies widely.
In Manhattan,for instance,which has the highest tax in the nation,a pack of Marlboro Light Kings cost $10.06 at one drugstore Wednesday.In Charleston,S.C.,where the 7-bent-a-pack tax is the lowest in the nation.The price was $4.78.
The influence is obvious.
In New York,high school smoking hit a new low in the latest surveys----13.8%,far below the national average.By comparison,26% of high school students smoke in Kentucky,Other low-tax states have similarly depressing teen-smoking records.
Hal Rogers,Representative from Kentucky,like those who are against high tobacco taxes,argues that the burden of the tax falls on low-income Americans “who choose to smoke.”
That’s true,But there is more reason in keeping future generations of low-income workers from getting hooked in the first place.As for today’s adults,if the new tax drives them to quit,they will have more to spend on their families,cut their risk of cancer and heart disease and feel better.

一些法非常有效,你可以看到结果,几天后,他们生效.但在这9天因为联邦香烟税收增加了一倍多,四邻每包1.01美元——就吸烟的电话挤满了"离开线”在全国范围内寻求戒掉这个坏习惯.
这不是一个惊喜公共健康提倡者.他们已经农委会目前国家增税多年来,发现吸烟者,尤其是十几岁的孩子们看来,价格敏感.也不是一个冲击战斗激烈的产业,每份税收的增加.
只是在想的是那么多的州则要求关闭它们的耳朵的信息.烟草税措施改善公共卫生,他们筹集资金、最特别,他们阻止人们开始吸烟的青少年,在这一天,几乎所有的吸烟者是上瘾了.然而税收的速率差别很大.
例如,在曼哈顿,具有最高税在全国,一包万宝路香烟王在花费$ 10.06药店星期三.在查尔斯顿在南卡罗来纳州7-bent-a-pack税最低的国家.4.78美元的价格.
影响明显.
在纽约,高中吸烟达到一个新的低最近的调查——13.8%,远低于全国平均水平.相比之下,26%的高中学生吸烟,其他低税在肯塔基州州同样令人沮丧的teen-smoking记录.
哈尔·罗杰斯肯塔基州的代表,就像那些反对高额的烟草税,指出税收负担落在低收入“美国人会选择去抽烟了.”
这是真的,但是还有很多的理由保持未来世代的低收入的工人获得钩放在第一位.对于今天的成年人,如果新税的东西驱使他们去放弃了,他们就会有比较多的家庭消费,减少癌症和心脏病的风险,感觉更好.
