However, our fee is oppressive for many middle class single income families with kids...and it's considerably higher than many other states. Shouldn't there be some sort of economy of scale benefit that makes a larger state's program cheaper to run per person than a smaller state's?
I don't know about economy of scale, but $145 for a CHL I believe is too much. I am a Vet so I will take advantage of the pricing; but we would probably have a bunch more CHL carriers if it was cheaper to do so. Shoot I guess I am kind of a Socialist myself, I believe Government should subsidize firearms for the people. I had a very Liberal Boss whose head would explode when I told him the same. I also used to tell him I was giving to a group within the Combined Federal Campaign that provided firearms training to inner city youth...
