To create another bureaucratic regulatory agency to create more thumb pressure on us creators of wealth so we have to feed the takers of wealth more whether we want to or not.

We need caretakers to save us from ourselves.

And all three carry ridiculously high federal excise taxes. BATFE is the enforcement arm charged with collecting the taxes. Our good 'ol red neck friends refer to them as "revenours". Short barreled rifles, sawed off shotguns, machine guns, suppressors, 20mm rifles all are legally owned by private citizens provided you buy the necessary tax stamps.

PS Bet you didn't think there was an answer to your question. Not a good answer but it'll have to do. I always thought BATFE sounded like one hell of a party if you'd throw in a couple bags of chips...

They started as a tax agency and the same will happen now that the IRS has armed agents. Goons like to act as goons.
