The political vote is a powerful tool. The vote of money spent is at least equally powerful, but often overlooked. Every dollar spent votes for or against some thing, some time, some place, some body, some idea. The current expendatures on guns and ammo by first time buyers is a very strong vote that all is not well and comforting with the new administration. The "hopee, changee thing" has left a lot of very uncomfortable citizens in its wake.
