520 _aEvery day, at least 1,241 Americans die before their time. They die painful, lingering deaths that could have been prevented. Every three days, as many citizens die from their own smoking habit, or from exposure to second-hand smoke, as died in the 9/11 tragedy. Each and every pack of cigarettes costs American taxpayers 40 in higher medical premiums, unavailability of health services, and other hidden financial drains. And every year, 925 out of every 1,000 smokers who try to quit on their own fail to stay smoke-free for a year-while hundreds of thousands of children become addicted to nicotine. Despite the Master Tobacco Settlement, the killing continues-and the settlement money is too often diverted away from smoking cessation programs and into the general budget.
