Time to raise taxes on guns and ammo.

It is disgusting how much money the guntards of this country are costing the rest of us. These ignorant and irresponsible gun owners are doing their best to destroy whats left of America.

Guntards cost us 174 billion dollars per year!

The U.S. Health and Human Services Department supplied total and average costs of shooting-related hospital stays, Miller said. The group estimates the cost of lost work -- even uncompensated household chores -- and future earnings with data from the Labor Department and Census Bureau, Miller said.

Dividing the $174 billion total by the number of guns in the U.S. -- 270 million as reported by the United Nations’ International Small Arms Survey -- the institute calculated the cost to society of each civilian-owned firearm in the U.S. at more than $644.

“The data shows this has been a very large problem for a very long time and the costs it imposes are far greater than what we collect in sales and excise taxes on guns every year,” Miller said. “Gun ownership is like smoking, an expensive and dangerous habit.” Its costs dwarf the $28.2 billion budget of the Justice Department, he said.

Nice! The NRA is running scared from Bloomberg. Not a surprise from the USA's most cowardly club.

U.S. debt at the moment comes to over $45,000 per man, woman and child. But Libtards want to keep raising the debt ceiling. Explain that one to me.

It looks like they did not factor in the costs of keeping all the gun people in prison. Cost could really be twice that figure. Guns may well cost us more than illegal immigration.
