Back door way to know where you are at all times as well as more taxes to do so. Sure is a lot more folks then 20 years ago willing to give up our freedoms without a whimper even.

Anyone ever know any government to relinquish a tax once it's in place?

case in point...The Johnstown Flood Tax

Need I say anymore

Nope......trigger warning..

Wait until you retire and depend upon the productivity of that generation.

With user taxes, if you don’t use it, you don’t pay it. Like a toll road you never use. Some general taxes are necessary for things like police, the military, and education.

Highway tax is typically collected via fuel tax, but electric vehicle use will soon require a change to the way we collect highway taxes.

My state charges a food tax. Some think that is unfair.

When the bill comes due it is most likely the baby boomers and gen xers are going to get told to go fly a kite by the younger generations. But not that polite.

So we already have vehicle sales tax, registration tax, and gas tax. I think that ought to cover it.

Gas tax is a user tax. Hit the electrics with a road tax!

I thought thats what gas tax was?

Can’t do that yet, gotta give incentives until everyone drives electric, then you hit em with the electric vehicle tax. Politics 101, incentivize voters to conform, and then when they do switch the script and call it “for the greater good”

If I have to depend on the productivity of the generation coming up now, I'm in trouble. I'll depend on my own productivity, thank you very much!

Now if someone would just make that generation depend on their own productivity and leave mine alone it would be a lot easier.

You all talk about the younger generation like they’re no good, but statistically they’re in better shape than most of you were at their age by a long, long ways.

What is to stop someone from removing all that Government spyware on their vehicle ?

Oh, Heck, let's just have a PERSON TAX. For every Child that is born; tax each Parent a 25 % tax on their yearly income in addition to what they would pay in State and Federal Income Tax !! LMAO !!!

In Japan, they pay people to have kids.

Jim

They pay people to have kids here. It's called welfare. Duh...........

Personally I agree with most user taxes. The one tax I'm admittedly against is property tax. In theory if you own the right land and can be self sufficient you should be able to live off of it with no payment. But....with property tax you must have income, well then you have to pay income tax.
