Biden Proposes $200 Gun Tax and Firearm Buyback Program
The Adults in the Room will ignore this kind of schlop coming from the MSM. They tried something similar in Canada. Canada spent almost a Billion dollars and never completed the registration process. Compliance was spotty even with horrific punishments for non-compliance. Trying this here, even getting a $200/gun tax to offset the expense, would be costly beyond imagination. If they got 40% compliance they would be doing well and they'd only get that level cooperation if they offered registration for free. Just imagine the paperwork involved in doing backround checks of half the gun owners in the USA. The NFA requires those checks be done in every state. 80 million gun owners times 50 states is 4,000,000,000 backround checks. It would take many years, perhaps a decade, to get the job done. That's even if the states submitted to doing those checks and there is no reason to think they wouldn't object to the man hours required to comply with this federal mandate. It didn't work in Canada, New Zealand or Australia, and it won't work here. It's been tried in Connecticut and New York. It was a total failure in both states. The fun part of this is that even if it is somehow pushed into law, it will be ignored by both citizens and much of law enforcement. How many folks went to prison for flash hiders on post ban guns during the assault weapons ban? No, this is just another benchmark showing how clueless people are in the beltway. Proves beyond a shadow of a doubt they can't do math.

ReplyDeleteGood point as well as inheritance tax, been there done that.
DeleteI wonder what they will do when I send it back with GFY (spelled out of course) on the form...
ReplyDeleteI'll pay a tax for my 2nd Amendment right the day those feckless assholes pay a tax for their 1st Amendment right.
ReplyDeleteMolon Labe!
Really.
DeleteFuck Biden and his gun confiscation ideas. I will not comply. I will not obey. The government does not know what I have, and I intend to keep it that way.
ReplyDelete& I imagine applies to the vast majority of gun owners.
DeleteThe Federal Government has NO delegated powers for any gun laws PERTAINING TO THE PEOPLE. Therefore, according to the plain language (Jr high level) of the 10th Amendment ALL gun control laws are UNLAWFUL and those enacting and enforcing them are acting criminally. Otherwise, these also violate the 2nd, 4th and 5th Amendments--all illegal and unlawful.--Ron W

This is another distraction, they cannot discriminate on whether a person is wealthy enough to defend themselves, much less that you cannot tax a right, 200.00 per Bible Tax next? Yes, shut this down but look at what this is pulling the attention away from. They are the children of lies.
ReplyDeleteThey are the children of lies.
DeleteWell said.
