In which case I WOULD CELEBRATE! Woo-Hoo!
Because I am now going into the firearms manufacturing business!
With all the other competition bought out and closed, I will be running a multi-billion dollar company in no time (I'm now the only game in town! Thank you, George Soros!) I will soon become a firearms manufacturing POWERHOUSE! After all, since all the other competition has been decimated, I (and probably 1,000 others popping up out of the woodwork) will try to lead the charge to fill the void caused by lack of gun manufacturers! Guess who is now the top selling gun manufacturer in the world: Superlite Arms!
Bringing us back to the original problem.....
Wouldn't Soros then have to buy MY firearms manufacturing business, as well? Cool! I'll sell it for a cool $5,000,000,000! (Which he'll then have to close at a loss, too.)
In which case, MAC702 would probably want to get in on the game! Congratulations! MAC702 Arms Manufacturing is now the top grossing firearms manufacturer in the world! Wouldn't you love Gorge Soros to offer you $6,000,000,000 for it? Are you going to sell? Why not? It will just lead to someone else getting into the firearms manufacturing business.
Now that 500 NEW firearms manufacturers have popped up like mushrooms to take advantage of the dead competition.......
He'll have to buy those,as well.....losing even more money when he closes.
So, since there's a void....MORE new firearm manufacturing businesses will spring up. (Is he going to buy those and sell at a loss, too? When does it end? Oh! When he inevitably GOES BROKE!)
How does this affect the industry other than making your 870 a collector's item?
How does anti-gunners forming a cabal and buying all gun manufacturers lead to the end of firearms? I agree with the above posts: It doesn't. It can't.
Anti-gun legislation and laws are the animals we have to hunt. Anti's buying gun manufacturers = So what? It's hypothetical anyway. Even if it wasn't = no big deal. Those concerned are worried about the sky falling. Buying and selling of companies is a smoke screen. It's the legislation that has an effect.
Dream on! You may not remember Preston Tucker or the Tucker automobile, and there's a good reason for that... the Tucker '48 never got into full production. Why? Because the SEC (with support from the "Big Three") was all over Tucker, and necessary production equipment was being bought/threatened out from under Tucker by the Big Three. You don't think that Soros, and people like him, have the necessary political, industrial and financial connections to make it
impossible for a start-up company to actually
start up? NOWHERE did I say it would be Soros
alone - look up the meaning of the word
CABAL. Good luck with "Superlite Firearms Co.", I'm sure you have independent investors just lined up outside your door waiting for you to give the word. Perhaps you expect to get bank loans? Who do you think
owns the banks... Honest John Smith? The Rockefellers, Morgans, Mellons and Soroses of the world, that's who. If they ever decide to
do something like what I proposed as a
possibility you can bet your tuchas it will be thought through to the "nth degree". If their goal is to
keep that avenue of personal endeavor closed, they
will have the full backing of every government agency and financial institute that has any say-so in the process. What it would end is the large scale, mass production of firearms. The sole proprietorship known as "Superlite Firearms Co." might continue to turn out a
VERY EXPENSIVE (since there is
little-to-no competition) gun every 3-4 months. If you actually
believe that any actions to stop firearms production in this country would be completely honest, open and above-board, you need to
put down that blunt, bro! Accidents aren't
always "
accidental", spontaneous combustion isn't
always "
spontaneous", and heart attacks aren't
always the result of a bad ticker. As technology improves, the need for "up close and personal" lessens, but... almost
simultaneously,
as times get harder, "up close and personal" becomes a more affordable commodity. The term "
hostile takeover" would take on a whole new meaning. Focus on the
real world - even though it may not be as pretty as we would like - it's the only world we have. Pax...
P.S. And you're willing to hang your hopes on "
legislation"?? Maybe
Santa will bring you some legislation this year, when he slides down your chimney!
