Before we go there—it is the kind of thing that triggers a whole bunch of weird unintended consequences.

It could be a new cottage industry of hacking, vehicle identification theft, increased value of older vehicles—and probably dozens of other effects we wouldn’t know about until they happen.

The notion that most folks will just happily pay the extra fees is highly questionable.

CSPAN had an interesting show about the World’s Fair of 1939.

The Fair lost money because it failed to meet its revenue projections.

The number one problem the Fair had—folks thought the food prices were too high.

Consumers can get very irritated and rebellious when they think they are getting ripped off...even on relatively small items.
