Er, yes. Not to put too fine a point on it but basically: apples and oranges. A welfare bill intends to aid poor people becoming less poor, generally speaking; it tends to aid a society in solving the problem of poverty. A concealed-guns-bill does not aid anyone who didn't have a gun in the first place (got to have gun before you can conceal the fact that you do). And it doesn't aid the Rule of Law at all.
