Smoking Declines Stall as Taxes Sought by CDC Chief (Update1) 

Jump to full article: Bloomberg News, 2009-11-12
Author: Tom Randall

Jump to full article »


Quotes from this article:

We collect $25 billion a year -- states and localities -- from settlement agreements and taxation, and spend less than 3 percent of that on tobacco control.
Thomas Frieden, head of the CDC.

The difference between the states making the most progress and the states not making progress is really stark and shows that government policies make a difference. It’s ironic that when we spend more than $7,500 per person, per year, on clinical curative care, we’re struggling to try to spend $10 a year on prevention.
Thomas Frieden, head of the CDC.
