Or put a state surcharge as a surrogate for gas taxes on the annual license plate fee for electric cars.

Has anyone seen any estimates of the bureaucratic costs of administering a mileage tax? That would be federal and state taxes.

What? isn't all electricity GREEN?

While I oppose increasing gas taxes for "carbon reduction" at least it is the most efficient and least intrusive way to do it. Mileage tracking is just one more way to reduce our liberty and increase government's violation of our lives.

It is none of the government's business how many miles I or any other American citizen drives.

it'll be done with gps. it's coming sooner or later.
