Abstract:
The article analyzes the impact of taxes on sugar-sweetened beverages in Seattle, Washington; Boulder, Colorado; Cook County, Illinois (Chicago); Philadelphia, Pennsylvania and two cities in the San Francisco Bay Area of California (Berkeley and Oakland). The results show that taxes on sugar-sweetened beverages can be effective. However, to improve tax efficiency, policymakers should consider the possibility of tax evasion when designing similar policies in the future.
