The upside of raising taxes on alcohol — fewer deaths

Donnerstag 9. September 2010 von htm

People love to complain about „sin taxes“ on unhealthy or socially undesirable foods and beverages (for instance, this Booster Shots item on a proposal to tax fattening foods to pay for obesity-related healthcare costs has prompted 831 comments so far). We know many of you think the government has better things to do than police what you put into your mouth. But have you ever stopped to consider how these taxes can help us?
