Brass tax

Tweet

There are so many different aspects of gun control that the Democratic party are not willing to address. One of the main isseus is Border control. There is no moral high ground for Democratics or Republicans to take on this issue. Both guns and drugs cross the border into the US illegally. Along with the Mexicans and Cubans that are killed by unknown numbers from Drug cartels, the elements and human trafficking. It's time for both sides to crawl down off of their crosses and bear the weight of the cross that they have hung on, for so long now. Lets talk about brass tax, in order to give more depth and understanding into just how guns effect both the local and Federal government's economy. Guns create jobs for thousands of people here in the US. Those jobs require the services of the metal industries, polymer industeries, lumber industries, chemical industries, postal services and many other services. This generates revenue for local businesses like, Home Depot, Lowe's, Local hardware stores, Wal-Mart, other clothing/shoe stores, grocery stores, gas stations, Mcdonald's, Wendy's, Starbucks, any other restaurants, Hospitals and Lodging. The taxes gernrated from the sales are then used for local Streets, Law enforcement, general city and county maintenance such as water services, Lawn care of parks and so on. The Frderal Goverment uses the funds to pay for Federal Law enforcement, Schools, jails, prisons, parks, Military, Welfare, Social Security, Gov Housing and so on. The American economy can not afford to ban guns at this point and time. With all of the refugees and illegal immigrants placing more financial strain on an already exhausted economy, America's economy can not afford the loss of revenue. It's time to stop the generic banter, misnomers, childish antagonizing, and spreading of propaganda from your political religions. Death does not discrimnate aginst age, race, religon or creed. Is your political religion an even trade for your childs life? Again there is no moral high ground for anyone to take. Democrats, the majority of you are ignorant when it comes to the topic of guns. The media has mislead you and does not offer any real insight into the gravity that guns have in America. I give no quarter to the Republicans when it comes to the media either. They are just as inflammatory and misleading as well when it comes to this topic. There are no valid arguments that justify the media on this topic. I will end with this. Do Your Due Diligence!!!! “How is one to live a moral and compassionate existence when one is fully aware of the blood, the horror inherent in life, when one finds darkness not only in one’s culture but within oneself? If there is a stage at which an individual life becomes truly adult, it must be when one grasps the irony in its unfolding and accepts responsibility for a life lived in the midst of such paradox. One must live in the middle of contradiction, because if all contradiction were eliminated at once life would collapse. There are simply no answers to some of the great pressing questions. You continue to live them out, making your life a worthy expression of leaning into the light.” Barry Lopez
