They tried that in the Netherlands too.

It failed because it is political suicide to vote for such a law.
 Quoting: Emergency Patriot Hologram


But in America, politicians can just import ignorant foreigners to vote in our elections to pull off stuff like this...11,000 keystone pipeline jobs are gone and 120,000 jobs in TX will be gone...we allowed this corruption to take root in America because you can do or say anything you want here, but for God's sake, "don't be violent." Well, look where all that peaceful talk got us. We're living in Gotham at the end of Joker, and guess what? We're about to get what we f-<k1ng deserve.
 Quoting: ButyraceousBubba


no sir..we did not vote for this crap and we dont deserve it besides the rules are not going to be equal for any of us...screw that.

It’s actually a very fair way to tax. People who use the roads more should pay more. Of course this is what the gas tax does. They are telling you to use an electric car but then can’t tax you so they have to make up a new tax. Electric cars are only viable now because they get a huge handout from taxpayers.

How about a tax on how many steps you take per day?

Or a tax on how much oxygen you breathe throughout the day?

"The federal gas and diesel tax is the primary source of funding for the Federal Highway Trust Fund."

That's straight up bullshit. In a monetary sovereign nation federal spending to it's departments is not dependent on taxation. When you own the machines that print the money it's made when a button is pressed.


Also Truckers will have to increase liability insurance..

"Biden is expected to sign a transportation law that ran into a stall in the Senate in 2019. The Moving Forward Act requires commercial motor vehicles to increase their insurance liability from the currently required $750,000 to more than $2 million."

Rural sector also will get smashed by the proposals in OP link.

On a hunch I'm going to speculate that a majority of Rural people, utilize a vehicle that accumulates considerable mileage for work... are mostly Trump supporters.


They're sure keen on the 'healing and coming together'.. sure, after being bled.

The very sad thing about this, and this time I am dead serious, is that they are going to flood the US with these kinds of leftie-idiot-plans as they did in Western Europe (Netherlands is one of the best example). They systematically fucked us, every year. And now we are so flooded with migrants that the entire system is out of balance and nothing seems to work as it should. Just your future as well. It´s a fucking shame. Right in front of your eyes and the people didn´t do shit to stop it.

In America they just come up with a vote tally that lets the chosen candidate win.

In vermont they tax commercial trucks with diesel engines. When you enter the state you have to keep tabs on the miles. Then once a month report it to Vermont and pay your taxes.

The American Revolution occurred after only a couple of new taxes were attempted.

We now have a zillion taxes and are so conditioned to it that all resistance has been bred right out of us.

At this point it seems impossible to commit political suicide in the Corporate States of America. Millions of ignorant and immense fraud has seen to this. As long as one follows the preferred globalist narrative, the politicians do not have to answer to their crimes or to failed policy.

It's a complete free-for-all.

 Quoting: BRIEF


Yup, my wife atm drives 103 miles round trip for her job, before i retired my mileage varied from 30 miles to 150 miles a day!

Not only are they grasping at straws for tax $$ they are going to try and push working people back to the cities, we have all seen how one or two big Metro areas can decide an election for a entire state!

In the end any mileage tax will be passed on to consumers for which most of us already pay this tax every time we fuel up so why not tax electric cars only?
would rather have it & not need it then need it & not have it
