As far as addressing paying for guns, I already did. We have an amendment that says you can't be charged to vote. We don't have an amendment that says you can get guns for free, just that the government can't stop you from owning them (with limitations).
This is true. I didn't even get into the 24th in my argument because we were talking more about subsidizing than taxing. But, the right to vote is specifically listed as being unable to be taxed, and any fee charged by the government can be considered a tax.
