Original Note:
The $557B number for guns is Everytown's estimate of the entire economic cost of all gun violence in the United States, not a Federal spending estimate. https://everytownresearch.org/report/the-economic-cost-of-gun-violence/?utm_source=chatgpt.com The fossil fuel subsidies number is similarly broad, accounting for all in costs like environmental degregation, etc. https://www.imf.org/en/Publications/WP/Issues/2019/05/02/Global-Fossil-Fuel-Subsidies-Remain-Large-An-Update-Based-on-Country-Level-Estimates-46509
