We are all ready paying by the mile the more you drive the more gas you use the more tax you pay.

The dems and the wackos just want to have more control and raise more money.

I think it is to eventually control where and how far we can go. Watch them start advocating for installing limiter chips in the GPS system installed by mandate in your vehicle. A voice will warn you "Mr. FReeper you are approaching your mileage of no return for today please turn around and go home."

Or "Mr. FReeper you are approaching a 'No Go Zone' please make a left turn at the next intersection or turn around. Your engine will be shut down if you don't comply."

Or "Mr. FReeper you have listened to conservative radio for one hour we will be switching the station to 'Air America' or the nearest Public Radio Station in two min."

That is correct, but now the electric and hybrid cars will have to pay more taxes too. I am totally against this, but there are some people who think this will be "fairer" for most commuters. I think it is BS.

But the tin can hybrid POS cars will be exempt...so the public will be forced to buy them, to combat global warming.
