Tobacco is a public health issue: how does the tax increase on tobacco products improve public health and how does it make it worse?
**Cultural Considerations** People from underrepresented ethnic/racial groups, lower educational status, and who live at or below poverty level represent the highest population among those who smoke cigarettes. A recent study was conducted looking at low and middle income countries to determine if there is a relationship among families whose men smoked and human capital expenditures. This study found an inverse relationship among those families that had a smoker and family spending on healthcare and education. Thus families who had a male smoker in them (usually the main financial support for the family) spend less money on healthcare and education costs. Since 1996, taxes on cigarettes have gone up tremendously (in some states almost 300%). Some would argue these tax increases are negatively impacting groups in society that are already disadvantaged in terms of quality of living, healthcare, and educational opportunities.

Step 1

Tobacco proves to be detrimental to overall global health. It abruptly impacts an individual's social and bodily condition, culminating in severe worries such as cancer, stroke, impotence, and infertility, encountering the rigors of stigmatization by dwelling around others who use tobacco, and so on. It ends up killing many people, which is attributable to their inability to control themselves while consuming it.
