Tobacco tax

Opponents of the July 1 tobacco tax increase have been quick to state the $1.60 increase will hurt tobacco sellers, drive smokers to border states to purchase less expensive cigarettes, and will therefore not provide the projected tax revenues for the state. While some people may resort to buying their tobacco elsewhere, others will simply decide to quit smoking all together, which is a primary goal of the tax increase. According to the American Lung Association, every 10 percent increase in the price of cigarettes reduces consumption by about 4 percent among adults and about 7 percent among youth.
