One thought on “Dr. Richard Feldman: Is endgame tobacco control the best answer?

  1. My answer to that title is an emphatic “No”. No more than Prohibition got rid of drug problems. The key is education. The more people know, the less they will smoke. There will always be that small percentage who will ignore common sense. That is on them. My feeling about heavier taxes on tobacco products is just a thinly veiled means of increasing revenue for a greedy government. Mitch Daniels, who I like actually, promoted an increase in tobacco taxes because, “I wanted less smoking in Indiana”. My first question was, “Is that why we have such income taxes?”
