E Cigarettes Will Be Benefited from Tax Hike on Cigarettes

Cigarette tax is increasing and though cynics suggest that this is not a government move to improve the public’s health, it seems to be driving smokers away from traditional cigarettes.

US state governments and the national government may inadvertently be increasing the popularity of the E-cigarette because of tax increase which are severely affecting the price of regular cigarettes. Smokers in some states are now being forced to pay upwards of $10 a pack. Those who smoke one pack a day will spend an annual total of over $3,500 to feed their habit.

Deltascan.org, a website which provides E cigarette reviews as well as being a direct link between consumers and E cigarette companies, say that every tax increase is leading to a spike in the sales of the organizations they are affiliated with. According to the site, these tax increases could be the best thing that has ever happened to E cigarettes.

Even Americans who are somehow unaware of the health benefits of these cigarettes which have no tar or tobacco understand the stark difference in price. A prime example is the V2 cigs which charges $80 for a starter pack. This pack contains 10 nicotine cartridges. When one considers that a single cartridge has the same amount of nicotine and offers the same number of puffs as an entire pack of regular cigarettes, it is easy to see the savings that can be made.

Those who smoke one pack a day for a year will spend approximately $657 (An 80 pack of V2 cartridges costs $129.95) if they choose E cigarettes. So essentially, this E cigarette brand will save a smoker almost $3,000. Even smokers who buy smaller packs are likely to halve their smoking expenditure.

Deltascan.org publish hundreds of E cigarette reviews and use their ratings system to find the best E cigarette. The news section of the site is always filled with breaking news stories with the conduct of the Federal government and various state governments not escaping the notice of the site’s reporters.
