Clearly Gun Control isn't happening and isn't necessarily even a good idea or an effective one.

Bullet, Not Gun Control

Gun control has been the subject of debate for years now. Some people want to tighten gun registration and licensing, while others demand their second amendment right be recognized and protected without limitation. Seeing how banning guns seems nearly impossible, people are trying to find a middle-ground. There are many possible solutions out now, but they are all focused on guns themselves, but there maybe another solution. Jim Dwyer, writing in The New York Times, quoted United States Senator Daniel Patrick Moynihan who said: “we have only a three-year supply of ammunition.”

In 1993, Senator Moynihan proposed that we ought to give up on gun control as a way to reduce criminal violence. “These mostly simple machines last forever,” Senator Moynihan said. “On the other hand, we have only a three-year supply of ammunition.” He proposed a tax on bullets. But he proposed a “Ten thousand percent” tax on hollow-tipped bullets. The result, a 20-bullet pack would cost $1,500. “Guns don’t kill people; bullets do,” said Moynihan.

This isn't an original idea, but I wonder what you all think about it? I'm shocked more people don't bring up this idea. To me this is the most logical solution. In fact I think they could comprise with the Pro Gun people and have looser restrictions on certain things if Republicans would agree to tax the hell out of bullets.

Yes people can make their own bullets, but you could tax those machines and supplies as well. Now a 20 pack of bullets costing $1,500 is ridiculous, but what if a 20 pack of bullets on average cost $100? What do you think?
