How would the law be policed? Would it require extensive resources? Will it fall on the shoulders of our park workers whose numbers have been drastically diminished due to budget cuts? Will it create tensions between law enforcement and otherwise law-abiding citizens? Will violators be warned or ticketed? The city has been known to lean on violations to boost city revenue, but it seems absurd to fine a tourist unfamiliar with the ban or a stressed out worker who absent-mindedly lights up on a break.
Scarier still is the notion of uneven enforcement: will it be one more excuse to target New Yorkers of color,wholesale newports cigarettes website, who are already disproportionately caught up in the city’s expansive stop-and-frisk policies? Halloran didn’t do himself any favors making false equivalencies and quoting pseudo-science, like noting that no study has shown the risks from second-hand smoke to be greater than the risks from truck exhaust is just a distraction.
The impact of second-hand smoke has been well-documented. Plus,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], while the city should also take aggressive measures to protect residents from other pollutants, this doesn’t need to be either-or. Those who are working to combat smoking in the Garden State are wondering what will happen to smoking rates in New Jersey in the years to come, as the tobacco companies continue to spend more than $200 million a year to market an expanding line of products here. They also are wondering if state funding for effective anti-tobacco programs will ever be restored or even wiped out entirely.
And they are wondering if the number of deaths tied directly to smoking in New Jersey — 11,201 last year — and the economic cost to the state — nearly $5.6 billion in 2010 — will rise. The state Department of Health and Senior Services says it will closely monitor new smoking figures to see if the increase was an anomaly or a new trend. “The bottom line is that despite an extraordinarily difficult budget situation,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], the Department of Health and Senior Services remains committed to tobacco prevention as a key public health issue,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], and that is why we have merged tobacco prevention efforts as part of an overall chronic disease strategy,” said Donna Leusner, spokeswoman for the department. Yet somehow, new customers for Big Tobacco are still being developed. [link widoczny dla zalogowanych].
Why? The tobacco companies spend about $226 million a year marketing their products in New Jersey,wholesale marlboro gold cigarettes, according to a study from the Campaign for Tobacco-Free Kids. Much of this advertising is targeted at high-school and college-age students, while some is aimed at other specific populations such as the poor and minority groups. “In other states where they’re cutting or eliminating altogether funding for anti-smoking and smoking cessation programs, they’re seeing smoking rates go up,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych],” said Brown of the American Lung Association. “Florida and Massachusetts are good examples.
When they started to cut their funding, their smoking rates went right up. We’re heading in that direction.” It’s unknown yet whether the remaining $600,cheap newport cigarettes,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych],000 in the state budget for anti-tobacco programs will stay or be among the proposed cuts when the governor presents his state budget later this month.
