By installing tracking devices on your car and charging you per mile. They're already on it.

Little box box that tracks your mileage use...

Set at whatever arbitrary fee your overlords think you can afford...

Think of it as a cell phone bill for your car...

They will just add whatever fee they want...

Needy children ? $01 per mile
Meal on Wheels social services? $.01 per mile
Democrat election campaign $.01 per mile...
Muslim diversity outreach program $.01 per mile
SEIU needy union thug fund $ .01 per mile

The possibilities are endless

“How will the government make up for the expected loss of gasoline tax revenue?”

Well, you know that little black box that your insurance company has become so interested in lately? Your government has its eye on it too. What’s going to happen is; in the not so distant future we will pay road tax based upon miles driven. And there will be all sorts of variable in the formula such as weight, axles, design. Oh, almost forgot; if you should be poor, transgender, or some sort of disadvantaged person you will be given a tax credit and thereby probably make money if you drive enough miles. Conversely, if you are one of those who work hard and have a little success you will be taxed so that you “pay your fair share”. Opp’s, almost forgo, union members and government employees of course will be exempted from this tax. So, there you have it, our road tax future - dont you just love it....
