Connecticut Democrat State Representative Jillian Gilchrest defended her call for a 50% ammo tax increase by saying that if she was able to save even one life it would all be worth it.
Under her plan, a box of ammo currently costing $20 would then cost $30, for example.
Do the math on how much ammo you would wish to buy in her state, then add a 50%, and it’s a massive tax increase, no matter how you slice it.
Here’s the video of Gilchrest talking about her big ammo tax decision.
