Obama's so smart he can do the calculations himself in 5 minutes.
Since the GPS system measures location, does anyone not think that this system would be used to issue us speeding tickets.
I had someone telling me that about 30 years ago during the energy crisis when gas first went up from 25 cents a gallon to 50 cents a gallon.
This guy wasn’t a lunatic survivalist, either, but he saw what was coming.
There’s no way then can tax you when you drive a car that doesn’t have a tracking device.
GPS jammers should help.
Won’t work. You will be tracked by GPS.
Who will be organizing protests against this?

I will, they aren’t touching our fing cars. PERIOD.
Most of Obama’s supporters drive less than five miles a day.

WE need to write emails, support the Tea Parties over housing injustice, and let FoxNews, CNN, CBS and all the newspapers know what we think about it. OUR VOICE MUST BE HEARD!

From what I’m seeing all over the internet, looks like skip the rest, they are ready for the tea party.
It has taken on a life of it’s own.
Add to that list service fleets. Electrician, plumbing, appliance repair, telephone companies that have huge fleets of trucks, florists, suppliers, I could go on an on. This poser is a LUNATIC!!
Retrofitting existing vehicles will be mandatory.

“President Barack Obama will not adopt a plan to tax motorists based on how many miles they drive. Press Secretary Robert Gibbs commented about Transportation Secretary Ray LaHood’s proposal to tax people by how many miles they drive instead of raising the federal gasoline tax. Friday, Gibbs says the tax will not be the policy of the Obama administration.”
A GPS tells you WAY MORE than a simple odometer. AND, it wants you to hook it to the Net, every week or so, for updates. If the National Socialist Democrat American Workers Party simply mandates a flash drive, it will record your every movement, addresses paused at, and for how long, and download it to your Permenant Record. Do you actually think this is about a simple tax per mile thing?
It's just for your own safety, like those SS thugs in Oklahoma City who demanded, (and were allowed), to search the "Abort Obama" bumper sticker owner's house, to make sure there was no evidence of "hate groups."
Just because 99.9% of the Federal Monster is a useless waste of protein, oxygen, oil, real estate, doesn't mean they can't actually have a Blind Squirrel program.

But you say:
"If the National Socialist Democrat American Workers Party simply mandates a flash drive, it will record your every movement, addresses paused at, and for how long, and download it to your Permenant Record. Do you actually think this is about a simple tax per mile thing?"
As I have been saying to all of the other hysterical half-considered and paranoid scenarios presented in this thread, think it through.
Just because you and I can easily "download" our own personal GPS travel data on an individual basis, does not translate to "the government" tracking, collecting, transferring, storing, analyzing, and maintaining that same data for the estimated 250,851,833 **passenger** vehicles in the United States (that figure doesn't include commercial vehicles).
You and the other folks on this thread need to get out of you own heads and think of how this would really and actually in reality be implemented for 250 million vehicles per year, every year, and how long it would actually in reality take to build such a system and how much in the real world it would actually cost and where is the manpower and planning to do it.
And this is not even yet to consider the very serious and very in-your-pockets invasion of personal liberties that such a program engenders.
Or, live and "work" from home.
Eichmann, (who today would be a center of the road Democrat, working as sales support staff for Exxon, and takes a job with the Feds in HHS), was a clerk. Recall that all he did was make sure 9,000,000 units got on the correct trains, that the trains were maintained, that they arrived when and where.... That was with paper, pencil, filing cabinets. Think of what he could have done with a single laptop and Excel.
9,000,000 units, or logs, or untermench, sorted out, teased away, shipped out, from the entire population of Europe, for processing. And they all trooped, naked, into the sealed rooms, convinced that it wouldn't, couldn't happen.
Just remember, next time you start thinking, "it can't, it won't...", It has happened, it will happen, again. Your's and my handles on reality, the can and can't, is heavily greased, and there are people who desperately want to take the whole belief construct away from you.
Screw it, I'm gonna get some more .308 Winchester ammo.
