“I suggest we tax journalists.”

Add this Urinal-ist to the list to be taxed.

This mope says that all “Habitual gun users” should be taxed.

An Ammunition Tax Wouldn’t Stop Mass Murders but Could Save Many Lives

“Here’s an idea: Why don’t we levy a healthy excise tax on bullets?

Maybe it wouldn’t work. But given that we are going to have to raise some taxes of some sort and this would raise revenue, it seems worth a try. As an added bonus, a higher price of ammunition shouldn’t be a serious obstacle to anyone hoping to use a firearm for home defense. The costs would be borne by habitual gun users rather than people trying to prepare for rare contingencies.”
