The reading and the lecture offer two opposing views on the advantages that social might take by high taxes on cigarettes. Whereas the author of the reading suggests that there are many benefits for society with this policy, the lecturer argues that this concept is very challenging. She casts doubt on the main points made in the reading by providing three reasons.
First, according to the text, high taxes on cigarettes could avoid people buying this product which is beneficial for their health. However, the lecturer asserts that the high price of cigarettes leade to buying lower price one which has lower quality as well. She also mentions that people will spend their money on unhealthy foods and with lack of money they are't able to buy healthier foods.
Secondly, the author states that the tax of cigarretes is fair to be high because of the high medical costs of addicted people. Although, the lecturer disputes that in the case of addiction among all group of people such as low incomes and high incomes, the low incoms might have more pressure to satisfy their needs.
Finally, the text explains the profits which will government have by high cigarettes taxes, while the lecturer implies that it has many downsides as well. She believes that government might avoid banning the smoke of cigarettes in public places because of their profits. Goventment would not forfeit the incomes provided by high taxe of unheathy foods or cigarettes.
To recap, the lecturer belives that this policy has many disadvantages which is not worth to be accomplished. She explains that low income people will be hurt from this notion and also she says that govenment, due to its high incom, will be encouraged to not avoid any smoking in public areas by any sign.
