Have you heard about this tax by the mile crap? I know for a fact that Obama said during his campaign that he would not raise taxes. So instead of acknowledging that he lied he’s letting the Bush tax cuts expire and is creating new ridiculous taxes such as tax by the mile.
Now it’s not really a fuel tax, it’s a “freedom tax”. And in Iowa they have been experimenting on this tax by the mile.
Now here’s how it works. The government puts a gps device on your car which monitors how many miles per month you drive and sends the info to the “monitoring station” which sends the info to a “billing center”. So for me it’s not only the fact that we’re getting charged to drive which is one of our freedoms, but also the fact that the government will know where you are and where you’ve been. I think it’s a privacy thing. So I’ll say it again. We are losing our freedoms, little by little.
and most of this comes because we gave the presidency to a guy who never had a real job…
we might as well tape our freedom to the newly legal fireworks we use this weekend and launch them away.
