In the article Tobacco Industry Fights Anti-Smoking Tax Plan it talks about raising tax prices on cigarette's to help people quit smoking, expecially teenagers. Unfortuantly I am a smoker and live in a house full of smokers, who have been going through the increase of prices on cigarettes for many years. Although I do plan to quit smoking it's not due to the increasing cost; like many people, I want to elliminate nicotine from my system and quit smoking cigarettes for my health. Many American's smoke, and have been for years, raising the prices hasn't stoped them yet. I do believe it will help some people but not all people,because smokers will quit when they believe they want too, not because of the price of the ciggarette.
