Tobacco Tax Is a Win for Georgia
By Michelle Putnam, MPH
For those inclined to live under a rock, the state of Georgia is in a deep recession, with revenues steadily declining over the past year and showing no sign of recovery. In Georgia, 20% of adults and 18% of high school students smoke, costing our $2 billion a year in smoking-related health problems. Is there a magic pill that would solve both of these problems at once? You bet there is. I give you, the tobacco tax.
Nearly two million Georgians are uninsured.
Georgia’s infant mortality rate is among the worst in the nation.
Georgia ranks 38th in health system performance.
2012 is a critical year for health care advocacy--your voice matters!
