A balanced tobacco control policy

S.D. Sugarman

American Journal of Public Health, 2003, vol. 93, issue 3, 416-418

Abstract: By raising the price of cigarettes through tobacco taxes, policymakers might only be delaying some smokers' initiation of smoking rather than permanently preventing them from smoking. This is one of several reasons for adopting a balanced tobacco control policy that relies only in part on cigarette taxation.
