Who said the shooter had 5k worth of stuff purchased on a debit card? Sounds like a brewing conspiracy theory.

There might be parallels with the solar panels? A mix of crony capitalism, ineffective regulation, and neomercantilism? It is obvious with the baby formula.

Republican solution is to further cripple regulatory agencies. Spread propaganda that less government is the answer; scapegoat immigrants and poor people.

Daniel Defense M4 V7 rifle $1300
Smith & Wesson MP 15 rifle  $500
1600 rounds 5.56mm ammo $800
Body armor $50 to $600+
Magazines $180 - $240?

He also worked part time installing ACs or something like that and apparently had no expenses.

Maybe he had other sources?

I expect someone will do a money trail.

Enjoy driving on free market roads.

Enjoy free market health care when you are old and uninsurable.

Free market education is great for the most talented and the wealthy.

Without effective regulation, free markets turn into central planning by private monopolies.

Republicans sabotage government; then say see it doesn't work.

Democrats tend to overreach into the wrong areas, and neglect what they should be doing.

Government central planning is good for transportation, education,  healthcare / welfare, and public safety. Everything else should be free market competition with government oversight to prevent monopolies, fraud, etc.

Used available from $850 for poor condition to $1350 for top condition. Brand New out of the box can be had for less than $1700.

Ammo could run from less than 50 cents to more than a dollar. Or home made is cheaper.

The Republicans are trying to sell the idea that we can drill our way to lower gasoline prices. A recent blog by the Fed completely debunked that.

Oil companies are enjoying record profits and investors are risk averse. Even if they started drilling new sites; which they won't, they can't produce enough, in a best case scenario, to significantly impact global markets.

A case can be made to drill for energy independence, but oil markets don't currently work that way.

The fossil fuel companies are not stupid.  They see the decarbonization efforts taking place in the energy and transportation sectors. 

They’re starting to pivot to petrochemicals, and plastics in particular, as their next major growth market.
