Short-Sithted, As Usual!

Banning guns is costing government billions of dollars in taxes and fees. “Since 2008, gun sales have climbed steadily. So, too, has the number of firearm-related jobs. According to a recent study commissioned by the National Shooting Sports Foundation, today’s firearms industry employs 134,429 people who make more than $5.9 billion in wages and create a direct economic impact of nearly $17.8 billion.” So attempts to limit gun ownership is costing them a LOT of money, which should come as no surprise to INTELLIGENT people. But since they apparently aren't very smart, it's a big surprise. All this falls under the title of, “unexpected consequences.,” of which there seems to be a lot—and not just in the gun industry.
