The simplest way to reduce Medicare and Medicaid costs is to reduce the number of people insured. After Insureds die, they are no longer a cost to Medicare.



More people owning guns results in more suicides and LESS money spent for Medicare and Medicaid. That’s just one more reason for Republicans to support the 2nd amendment.



Pew Research Center:

Though they tend to get less public attention than gun-related murders, suicides have long accounted for the majority of U.S. gun deaths. In 2020, 54% of all gun-related deaths in the U.S. were suicides (24,292), while 43% were murders (19,384), according to the CDC. The remaining gun deaths that year were unintentional (535), involved law enforcement (611) or had undetermined circumstances (400).
