Guns and ammo costs

Not a huge deal or even all that important, but I enjoy the little things. I would like (maybe only in the harder settings) for (human) basic guns and ammo to cost money. The whole infinite thing, is useful and I'm sure not even a few people want to pay attention to their ammo stores (especially with basic human guns) but I enjoyed that little detail from xcom.

In my opinion, in the middle of the ALIEN INVASION, most people would let the FIRST, LAST, AND ONLY LINE OF DEFENSE AGAINST IT (Xenonauts) play their budget a little fast and loose. I've taken to regarding this infinite store of weapons and ammo as a donation from the US government (which is why it's all US equipment) to better allow us to win the battle against the aliens. Think about how much gear a rifle company in a light infantry battalion is given (this much), and think about how many grenades and bullets we go through in the course of a game, and you realize it would be a pathetically tiny chunk of change for the US government to subsidize EVERYTHING WE DO.

So guns and grenades are a nice compromise, I guess.
