Surgeon general: S C missing chance with tobacco money
South Carolina is criticized for spending tobacco settlement funds on public works and farmers rather than smoking prevention. Surgeon General David Satcher says most money should fund health care and prevention, with activists arguing for stronger anti smoking programs. The state's bond decisions allocate 73 percent to health care and 10 percent to rural development, with only 2 percent for water and sewer projects.
