Cigarette Tax to Rise in Georgia

The “sin” tax, often the easiest to hike without much ridicule, might be on the horizon for Georgians. The increase is being talked about: from 37 cents to $1.37 on all cigarettes. This tax hike might solicit a lot of “it’s for the children” talk, but as Bob Barr puts it, “Invoking the “it’s for the children” rhetoric in any public crusade attracts support, but whether or not cigarette taxes deter youth from smoking is not clear. According to the Tax Foundation, a non-partisan think tank, young people are just as likely to buy a pack of cigarettes after as before a tax hike.”
Not much has deterred the smoking American public away from their favorite brands. Do you think this tax hike will help? Do you think it’s fair to tax tobacco to help the state’s deficit?
