what’s stopping the government from attaching some sort of measurement gizmo on that hybrid that reports units of energy you are producing and taxing you on it?

We’ll call it a “road usage tax” or something like that.

I think that’s where the political fault line lies.

In rational times, it would be Republicans trying to get us off Arab oil for national security.

Dems would be pretending to go along - but only so they could figure a way to control and tax us. (your “road usage tax”)

Unfortunately it seems the entire GOP has been bought and paid for by so-called free trade dolts, who couldn’t care less about national security. As long as they can make a few dollars off our national collapse.

Which is why, IMHO the GOP is getting shellacked in every election recently.

America. First!
