The state government pays 39&#37; of these costs&#8212;$369 million, or $0.62 per drink.<\/p>\n<p><span aria-label=\"Hawaii\">Â鶹´«Ã½<\/span>&#8216;s alcohol taxes have not been raised since 1998, and have not kept pace with inflation. Over the past 20 years, liquor tax revenue as a percent of <span aria-label=\"Hawaii\">Â鶹´«Ã½<\/span>\u2019s total government revenue has decreased by more than 50&#37;. The white paper found that a 10-cent increase in the alcohol tax would cost non-drinkers (47&#37; of <span aria-label=\"Hawaii\">Â鶹´«Ã½<\/span>&#8216;s population) nothing, non-excessive drinkers about $4.64 per year, and excessive drinkers an estimated $26.70 per year.<\/p>\n<h2>Mounting research nationwide <\/h2>\n<p>The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention name alcohol price increases as a proven public health tool to reduce harmful consumption. Data on alcohol taxes has been mounting for more than 50 years, and research consistently shows that increasing the price of alcohol results in decreases in consumption. <\/p>\n<p>The research cites a Maryland case study, where a 3 percentage point price increase led to a 26&#37; decline in underage drinking and 17&#37; decline in binge drinking. Stopping these two types of drinking is key, because they are leading predictors of lifetime addictive behavior. Additionally, in the four years after the alcohol tax was passed, Maryland high school students reported a 31&#37; reduction in riding in a vehicle operated by a driver who had been drinking alcohol.<\/p>\n<p>&ldquo;Maryland\u2019s 2011 increase in its alcohol tax was a clear win-win-win for the state: it raised more than $100 million a year to pay for important state programs and services, it reduced excessive alcohol consumption, and it made the state safer for everyone, exemplified by fewer impaired motorists on the roadways,&rdquo; said David Jernigan, professor of health law, policy and management at Boston University, lead author on the Maryland case study, and co-author of the new <abbr>UH<\/abbr> study. The <span aria-label=\"Hawaii\">Â鶹´«Ã½<\/span> study builds off the Maryland economic model developed by Jernigan.<\/p>\n<p>&ldquo;We\u2019ve all been affected in some way by alcohol misuse,&rdquo; said Kawena Bagano, <span aria-label=\"Kauai\">Kaua&#699;i<\/span> resident and volunteer of the <span aria-label=\"Hawaii\">Â鶹´«Ã½<\/span> Alcohol Policy Alliance. &ldquo;Whether personally or through someone we love, everyone has a story of alcohol addiction, health problems, drunk driving incidents, or alcohol-related violence.
