Abstract

Alcohol is said to impose harms, including healthcare costs and impaired driving, that warrant an alcoholic beverage tax. However, research shows that light and moderate alcohol consumption is beneficial to health. Furthermore, the burden tied to heavy drinking are exaggerated and, when all costs and benefits are considered, may not exist. Research also suggests that alcohol taxes are self-defeating; those who are likely to drink less because of higher prices are the same light and moderate drinkers whose health improves after they drink. Heavy drinkers, by contrast, are not that responsive to higher prices. But policymakers are not likely to repeal alcohol taxes. Too many experts testify to their necessity and too many special interest groups agree, all while receiving government grants.

Reliance on alcohol taxes was also a practical matter. Before it was commonplace to work in exchange for a wage, an income tax was not a useful source of revenue. The same could not be said about an alcohol tax.

McGirr (2019) notes that racial and anti-immigrant undertones also marked the temperance movement, just as it marked campaigns against marijuana.

The report, “Reducing Underage Drinking: A Collective Responsibility,” was issued by the National Research Council and the Institute of Medicine of the National Academies in 2003. It recommended alcohol tax increases, especially on beer.

For example, Alcohol Change UK issued a press release in October 2017 announcing the group’s support for minimum pricing in Wales that “will improve health and save lives.”

While arguing that the pension impact would be minor, Horlings and Scoggins (2006) note that it is understudied. See also Meltzer (1997).

36
See Møller and Matic (2010). Although the authors argue that all costs and benefits should be considered, they go to great lengths to explain how difficult the benefits are to estimate.

According to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, an impaired driving accident is one in which the driver has a blood alcohol concentration above 0.08.

See Centers for Disease Control and Prevention National Vital Statistics Reports, Volume 68, Number 6, and the same agency’s “Impaired Driving: Get the Facts” issued in June 2019.

The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention reported 10,497 deaths in 2016 from motor vehicle accidents where alcohol was a factor; estimates of medical error-induced mortality are discussed in Makary and Daniel (2016).

For example, Subbaraman et al. (2020) report that alcohol taxes reduce beer consumption, but also concede that they failed to control for “laws related to drunk-driving, such as blood alcohol content limits and license revocation policies.”

The report is titled, “Economic Costs of Alcohol and Drug Abuse in the United States—1992.”

The study in question is Chaloupka et al. (1993); see discussion in Benson et al. (1999). Dee (1999) also reports that including fixed effects eliminates taxes’ statistical significance.

McCambridge and Hartwell (2015). The authors note there may be some bias with respect to the relationship between alcohol consumption and stroke, but there were too few studies to make a definitive conclusion one way or the other. One of the authors of that paper later argued that the subject of industry bias was understudied (McCambridge and Mialon 2018).

In 2018, the Bureau collected nearly $21 billion in revenue from alcohol, tobacco, and firearm taxes against a total agency budget of just over $111 million. About $8 billion of that revenue was from alcohol excise taxes.
 
75
Notably, the United States federal government does not handle some other excise taxes in a similar fashion. Revenue from firearm and ammunition taxes is transferred to the Fish and Wildlife Restoration Fund, which uses the proceeds to fund grants for hunter education and wildlife restoration.
 
76
The percentages vary from year to year and can be calculated based on data reported in the Washington State Liquor and Cannabis Board’s annual reports.
 
77
Pan and Bai (2009). The federal government was biased against evidence that contradicted DARE’s efficacy. When a study funded by the Department of Justice concluded that DARE was a flop, the department refused to publish it (Ingraham 2017).
