'Bullet Tax' Proposed By Mayoral Candidate

I suppose one way to mark batches of bullets is to put a chemical marker into the metal alloy used to fill the jacket, but that would only narrow it doen to a batch and if those batches are in small enough numbers to actually be moderately useful it would increase cost by a fair bit, if the batches are too large however the entire process would be pointless and still add to cost of production.

This will boost the economy of the surrounding cities, and hurt the economy of the city itself. Great platform to run on for a mayor.

It does sound like its out of an Ali-G piece.
While there is a kind of logic in the tax the proposal the idea is just plain silly.
