This parallel doesn't really make a lot of sense.
First of all, because there is already a lot more social control exercised over welfare recipients than gun owners.
Second of all, because I am not aware of any significant position within the gun control movement that favors the complete elimination of gun ownership. The strictest gun laws in the nation don't eliminate gun ownership, simply restrict the types of gun, who can have them, and where one can carry them.
