that's my point. it's gotten to the point of no return with guns. it'll never get better, only worse. just like health care. it'll only get worse.
in my opinion, both will be the main reason for the eventual fall of this country. it'll be after our lifetimes, but they'll eventually come to a head .

I think the best most hopeful scenario as it relates to gun control or health insurance is that certain, more forward-thinking, progressive states may enact or set up stricter gun control laws and something similar to a state-run single-payer mini-health care system. If the federal government in D.C. can't seem to pass some nationwide measures, why can't Dem. lawmakers in blue states like Maryland, Minnesota, California, Oregon, Washington, New Mexico, and Illinois do the next best thing and God forbid, show Americans living in "red" and "purple" states what their missing. All those above-mentioned states have large, significant Democratic majorities so they have the power and influence.

Some states, like Hawaii, Massachusetts, Maryland, Minnesota, Vermont and Rhode Island have something a little akin to this and they are regularly listed as having some of the best health care services in the nation. Particularly Hawai'i.
