(i) Upon the Gun License being accepted, the player will be prompted to pay a fee of $25. if the player cannot afford it, then they will not be able to receive a gun license until they can.

(3) Subsection (2) of Section 4 of the Taxation Act is repealed and the following is substituted in lieu thereof:
(2) The following bracket amounts are inclusive and shall be taxed at the following rates weekly:
| Corporate Taxation Bracket | Personal Taxation Bracket | Taxation Rate (%) |
| $0.00 to $24,999.99 | $0.00 to $49,999.99 | 0 |
| $25,000.00 to 49,999.99 | $50,000.00 to 99,999.99 | 1 |
| $50,000.00 to 74,999.99 | $100,000.00 to $199,999.99 | |
| $75,000.00 to 99,999.99 | $200,000.00 to $299,999.99 | |
| $100,000.00 to $299,999.99 | $300,000.00 - to $499,999.99 | 2.0 |
| $300,000.00 or greater | $500,000.00 | 3.0 |
- I don't like how the $25 fee is established (not enough detail, like who is responsible for managing the fees? refunds? etc) and I think cutting pay by a few dollars an hour is more of a populism move than anything actually substantial.
