(1) Use of tobacco products is the nation's deadliest addiction. Smoking cigarettes is the
leading cause of avoidable death in the United States. More than 400,000 people die
prematurely each year from diseases attributable to tobacco use. The toll of deaths attributable
to tobacco use is greater than the combined toll of deaths from AIDS, car accidents, alcohol,
suicides, homicides, fires, and illegal drugs.
(2) Smoking is the main cause of 87% of deaths from lung cancer, 30% of all cancer deaths,
82% of deaths from pulmonary disease, and 21% of deaths from chronic heart disease. Use of
smokeless tobacco is a cause of oral cancer. In a study of women who did not smoke but did
use snuff chronically, the risk for oral cancers was 50 times greater than for nonusers.
(3) According to a recent estimate by the Office of Technology Assessment, each smoker
who died in 1990 as a result of his or her smoking, on average, would have lived at least 15
additional years if a non-smoker. For the population at large, this premature mortality translates
into 6 million years of potential life lost each year.
(4) It is difficult, of course, to calculate a dollar value for the human costs of tobacco-related
diseases. The suffering of patients and families resulting from tobacco-related morbidity and
mortality is unquantifiable. Lost productivity and health care expenditures can be quantified,
but the magnitude of the estimates depends on a variety of theoretical health care and technical
questions, including whether the costs of should be offset by the "savings" in social security
expenditures and health care costs not incurred because people died prematurely.
(5) The Office of Technology Assessment put the social cost of smoking in 1990 at $68
billion. This high-end estimate includes $20.8 billion in direct health costs, $6.9 billion in lost
productivity attributable to smoking-related disability, and $40.3 billion in lost productivity
attributable to smoking-related premature deaths. Whatever its total magnitude, the social cost
of smoking is substantial. Even based on conservative assumptions, expected lifetime medical
expenditures of the average smoker exceed those of the average non-smoker by 28% for men
and 21% for women. Each year, decisions by more than I million youths to become regular
smokers commit the health care system to $8.2 billion in extra medical expenditures over their
lifetimes.
(6) The nation has a compelling interest in reducing the social burden of tobacco use. This
can be accomplished by preventing people from starting to use tobacco and by getting users to
quit. The premise of this report is that, in the long run, tobacco use can be most efficiently
reduced through a youth-centred policy aimed at preventing children and adolescents from
initiating tobacco use. Moreover, because the prevalence of tobacco use among youths has
remained stubbornly constant for 10 years, and may even be rising, a youth-centred prevention
policy must be aggressively implemented if tobacco-related morbidity and mortality are to be
significantly reduced.
