I think a comparative analogy is that Bushmaster is to the gun world like Widmer is to Portland beers. The loss of Widmer isn’t going to effect the overall scheme of things, and the micro makers are probably going to be thrilled by the competitive absence. A person can divest from Bushmaster easily, but the competitive market is still thriving. The last couple years have been the best years for firearm manufactures ever in the United States, and the ingenuity and market demand is clearly out there, and that won’t change.

If only Democrats could invest their time into something meaningful, like financial regulation reforms, that could proactively prevent the economic conditions that drive people crazy.... Yet, this is where their attention is.

Or: if you wanted to truly affect the firearms market, you could simply have the federal government stop subsidizing their sales by buying up all the ammo and rifles from Bushmaster. Billions are being poured into the gun industry by the Federal Government. Ending the wars would fix this.
