The federal government allowed some states to supply one segment of companies with loaded assault weapons to go hunting another segment of companies. And after twenty years of the onslaught you are complaining about some loan guarantees (that came with really onerous conditions) to allow some restructuring.

Two things.
The Constitution clearly delineates the powers the Federal Government has vs. the powers the States have. The Feds often encroach on State powers, usually through administrative ‘laws’ created by bureaucrats, but it doesn’t ‘allow’ anything.
There are no such things as ‘assault’ weapons. That’s a pure fiction created by politicians who want to restrict and infringe citizens civil rights. If you disagree, please define an assault weapon and give an example.
