You cannot compare minimum wages with gun policies. Minimum wages are necessary for a basic standard of living throughout the country, which affects the well-being of the people, dependence on federal assistance, and the overall economy. If minimum wages aren't imposed federally, states will screw their citizens in order to attract corporations. Wages are basic.

Gun problems vary state by state.
