Actually we already are taxed on our use of the roads via gasoline taxes... which are pretty much exorbitant and never are used to repair roads. Mileage taxes begin to invade privacy by collecting individual data... erodes liberty. Not a conservative solution at all. Again.. Wow... I hope you are kidding.

would you tax the electric vehicles at the charging station, like at the gas pump?

I think we're on slightly different wavelengths here. You're thinking in terms of subdermal microchip implantation, and I'm thinking mileage taxes collected in arrears at the annual vehicle inspection based on odometer readings that are recorded anyway. I've also said that it's a good idea as long as gasoline taxes are eliminated.
