If this involves a GPS unit in the vehicle, it will DESTROY the privacy of travel. We can be assured by “strong laws” but government always gives itself a pass somehow. The only way to protect the privacy of travel is to never allow government the means to violate our privacy in the first place.

This isn’t the 70’s, your privacy of travel has been long gone.

In every major city today there is at least one patrol car with high res cameras recording (and logging) every license plate of every car on the road, both coming and going.

Facial recognition software has been merged with all the drivers license photos, guess who deploys it and on whose orders.

There is also automatic pollution monitoring equipment that can analyze your exhaust and record the reading along with your license tag.

Use your credit card to buy gas, tracked.

Toll roads are now handled with transponders issued to the vehicle owner, they track when and how often the vehicle passes the receiver.

If your car (more than 1/2 the new cars sold in the last 2 years ) has GPS capability, addition of a $25 transponder turns it into a mileage tracking and auto recording system.

I am not kiddin, this stuff is out there now, and it is where we are heading.

They will call it a tax and according to SCOTUS anything called a tax is legal.
Freedom and Privacy be damned if it's a tax. Roberts knew exactly what he was doing.

What some do not realize is that the only way to change this current path is to
fire and replace every elite in Washington. Boehner holds the beltstrap in the house
and threatens every new Critter to do as he demands. This has gone way to far for to long.


Voting is the only way to stop the progression of facism/socialism in our country.
