Obama administration floats draft plan to tax cars by the mile - The Hill's Floor Action




Excerpt;

Quote:
News of the draft follows a March Congressional Budget Office report that supported the idea of taxing drivers based on miles driven.

Among other things, CBO suggested that a vehicle miles traveled (VMT) tax could be tracked by installing electronic equipment on each car to determine how many miles were driven; payment could take place electronically at filling stations.


What do you guys think of this ???
