Here's one that almost slipped past. Bureaucrats are putting our tax
dollars to a predictable use: coming up with new ways to tax us.
Two hundred Triangle drivers will be recruited this fall to road-
test a satellite-technology system that might be used one day to
collect highway taxes on every mile we drive … The $16.5 million Road
User Charge Study will enlist drivers in six states to determine
whether the technology works, and whether Americans would accept a new
mileage tax. Volunteers will be asked how they feel about technology
that collects information about their driving.
I'm sure Obamunists will feel reassured by the idea of Chairman O's
minions watching over every mile we drive, the better to spread our
wealth around.
