I don't see the story on the link.

Anyway, is this proposal to replace the gas/diesel tax? Or in addition to the gas/diesel tax?

I know, I know ... its a rhetorical question and the later question is the answer, but I just wanted to make sure.

So what happens if I disconnect my speedometer cable say 11 months a year? I bet it would be a new felony offense.

It’s a new tax in addition to the taxes we already pay, and by doing per mileage it punishes those who have to drive farther to work, as Voting Map shows that would be those rural RED STATES WHO VOTE CONSERVATIVE....ex: Texas, Wyoming, SC, GA, TN etc. While most BLUE STATE ARE DEM with large public transportation....so you see how that works.
That “tea party” of Santelli’s may be the beginning of the Revolution.
We will now have loads of taxation but no decent representation.

Here’s my guess. They’ll tell us it will be in place of the gas tax, and the price of gas will come down to show us the tax has been removed. Then a couple months down the road they’ll tell us the mileage tax isn’t generating as much money as they thought it would and reimpose the gas tax without removing the mileage tax.

That's a bit like asking if a national sales tax, or a VAT will replace the income tax or be in addition to the income tax, isn't it?

As a commuter, driving 100 miles a day to work, it will be cold day in hell before I pay a mileage tax! I already pay a lot to drive to work. No taxation without representation!
