AVERAGE ANNUAL MARKET CAP FOR U.S. GUN SALES VS PHARMACEUTICAL SALES

I’m just posting this to provide context regarding the economic impact of both industries.

>Gun Sales average between $20-$30 Billion

>Pharma Sales average between $300-$400 Billion

The U.S. pharmaceutical market is the world’s most important national market. Together with Canada and Mexico, it represents the largest continental pharma market worldwide. The United States alone holds over 45 percent of the global pharmaceutical market. In 2016, this share was valued around 446 billion U.S. dollars. Many of the global top companies are from the United States. In 2016, six out of the top 10 companies were from the United States when based on pure pharmaceutical revenue.

The estimated economic impact of the US firearms industry in 2012, according to data from the National Shooting Sports Foundation. That’s up from $27.8 billion in 2009, due to job creation and new sales taxes. 26,325 new gun-related jobs have been created over the past two years, according to the NSSF.

The campaign to limit and eliminate private gun ownership is NOT about protecting people nor ensuring public safety.

THINK ABOUT IT: whereas average annual gun related fatalities in the U.S. are around 30K (10K of which are suicides), there are about 400,000 preventable deaths a year due to “medical negligence/mistakes.” Despite this fact, neither the Media nor Politicians are ever outraged about those 400K preventable deaths by doctors…..it’s all guns, guns, guns.

Which is a greater threat to the US taxpayer? Guns or lazy doctors who are more concerned with pushing pills?

Nice work.

It’s just ambiguous emough to lend itself to causing one to question what they’re looking at.
