What if the Congress and Senate decides everyone should own a gun? They can now tax you/me/he/she for not owning said gun. There are now no limits to the power of the Federal Government. They must simply tax ones actions or inactions in order to exert control. Scary stuff. The Genie is out of the bottle.

Ultimately, if the voters thought the gun law was a dumb law, they'd vote for someone else. Eventually, the government is accountable.
And of course there are limits. If you don't want a gun, just pay the tax. Easy peasy.
