    More than a third of businesses that officials recently checked in southwest North Dakota sold discount cigarette online to minors, according to information released by the Southwestern District Health Unit on Friday.“We were very, very surprised when we saw the results,” said Tammy Hovet, Tobacco Prevention and Control project coordinator for SWDHU.Twenty-two of 63 businesses checked in eight counties sold online cigarettes to minors in September and October, she said. The data shows a sharp spike in illegal sales, since a check of 65 businesses in the same counties in June turned up...

  • 18.10.2011 New Jersey Considers New Taxes On Non-cigarette Tobacco Products

    Little cigars, which are taking increasing space on area tobacco-shop shelves, are shaped and smoked just like cigarettes. But because New Jersey taxes them differently, they cost nearly one-third the price.Over the past several years, increased state and federal taxes have helped turn some smokers on to less-taxed cigarettes store products, local shop owners and anti-smoking cigarettes groups say.New Jersey has a $2.70 tax per cigarette pack, and the federal government has a $1.01 excise tax it enacted two years ago.That sixth-highest cigarette tax in the country may entice more smokers to...

  • 10.09.2011 Free Patches For Smokers

    Quitting smoking cigarettes just got a little easier. For a limited time, the California Smokers' Helpline is sending callers from Nevada County free nicotine patches. Eligible cigarettes store users who call 1-800-NO-BUTTS and enroll in the free telephone-based cessation program will receive a free two-week starter kit of patches, while supplies last.The patches are an FDA-approved treatment proven to help smokers kick the habit. They release nicotine into the bloodstream through the skin, reducing withdrawal symptoms and slowly weaning smokers off nicotine. Nevada County was one of 34...

U.S. Could Take Anti-smoking Campaign Lessons From Australia

The cost is astounding -- up to $25 per 25-cigarette pack -- and graphic advertising makes it clear that buy cigarettes kills. Together, they should be enough to kill the habit in that country.

That has not happened, though, so the Australian government is planning even more dramatic efforts to fight cigarettes.

I started smoking cigarettes when I was 16. The cost of a package of 20 cheap cigarettes was about 25 cents. I had a part-time job in a grocery warehouse so I was able to buy cartons of cigarettes wholesale at about half-price.

I quit when I was 32. By then, the price had gone up -- I don't remember how much -- and I was smoking cigarettes three packs a day. I quit when I recognized that I had become addicted and I was disgusted with myself for becoming prisoner to an ugly habit.

The sign at the Dead River gas station near my home in Augusta shows that cheap cigarettes now cost $5 or $6 per pack -- a fraction of the cost in Australia. Incremental price increases over the years and the understanding that smoking cigarettes kills have led many to quit, but government statistics show that 18 percent to 20 percent of Americans continue to smoke.

Walk around Augusta, and you will quickly find that this includes a significant number of teenagers who must think that they are immune to cancer.

The price of discount cigarettes in Maine astounds me, but the cost in Australia is absolutely astonishing. I don't know how anyone -- adult or teen -- can afford to smoke cigarettes in Australia.

My wife and I saw evidence of the Australian anti-smoking cigarettes campaign soon after we arrived in Melbourne last month. A large, somewhat outdated sign -- perhaps 6 feet by 4 feet -- was displayed at a busy intersection. It showed a man coughing blood into a handkerchief. The caption said, "Smokers cough up more than $16 a pack."

TV ads also feature a smoker coughing up blood.

The signs and commercials are part of a $61 million anti-smoking cigarettes campaign, launched by the government. The message is that "every cigarette brings you closer to cancer," according to a press release by Nicola Roxon, the national health minister.

Anti-smoking cigarettes efforts have had some success in Australia. Government reports estimated that 34 percent of Australians smoked in 1980. In 2007, that had dropped to 19 percent -- about the same percentage as in the United States.

Australian statistics report that 25 percent to 28 percent of 15-year-olds smoke cigarettes at least sometimes. I have no idea how they get the money.

In additions to signs, TV commercials and higher cigarette taxes, the Australian government has proposed laws that will change the appearance of cigarette packs. Most of the package design will be anti-smoking cigarettes material, including graphic pictures.

"The new packs have been designed to have the lowest appeal to smokers and to make clear the terrible effects that smoking cigarettes can have on health. The only thing to distinguish one brand from another will be the brand and product name in a standard color, standard position and standard font size and style," Roxon said.

The cigarettes companies say they will fight the proposal in Parliament and, if necessary, in court.

If passed in January, enforcement would begin in July.

"We are not going to back away from this fight," Roxon said.

It is significant that this is a government proposal, not the idea of some do-gooder anti-smoking cigarettes organization. That means it has the support of the prime minister and his party leaders in Parliament.

It's impossible to imagine President Barack Obama, any of his would-be Republican challengers or congressional leaders of either party making anti-smoking cigarettes a major political issue.

Rather than fight smoking cigarettes, the United States supports the cigarettes companies with tax breaks and subsidies. Last year, cigarettes companies received more than $200 million in government payoffs.

That would be a good place to start when budget cutters start looking for expenses to eliminate.
