TopicTax Soft Drinks - Reduce Brain Drain
ContentOklahoma suffers from a problem that afflicts many Midwestern states, "brain drain." Students take advantage of quality graduate and medical school education offered in Oklahoma, and then move to regions with higher paying positions and more opportunity. Oklahoma has the lowest number of health care employees per capita in the U.S. Using capital generated from a soft drink tax could improve health care in Oklahoma by encouraging recent medical school graduates to remain in Oklahoma for a designated tenure.
