Just park your vehicle and don’t go to work. No tax on transportation and no income taxes to pay. No social security taxes to pay. No medicare taxes to pay. See how long the government survives then.

They’re planning this crap in the UK too, saying that in a few years cars will have GPS devices installed by default when manufactured.

In the UK, they said these tracking devices will be used to automatically collect tolls when motorists use such roads, but also to fine motorists exceeding speed limits, since they can use GPS signals to calculate average speeds between certain points.

Keep in mind that GPS signals are “free for public” channels on satellites (you don’t pay for GPS / SatNav devices receiving such signals) used for other purposes too!!

The main reason European Space Agency is spending billions on Galileo constellation of satellites, is that US govt solely controls the GPS signals on current constellation, i.e. accuracy and status – so they can switch it off should they want to, amongst other functions.

Would it surprise you that those satellites are used for military purposes and everything that encompasses?

At some point, taxes become tyranny, and this is where it crosses the line. This bozo can hardly wait to get his greedy little mitts on a new form of screwing people out of THEIR money. Thank you for bring this to our attention!

Not only is the taxation a problem, this Democrat wants to put GPS devices in every car and truck in America – so that the government will be able to determine if we’re driving on highways or secondary roads and be able to calculate the tax.

This also means the Government will be able to monitor exactly where you go at anytime, in real time.

That guy who wrote 1984 must be cussin’ up a storm in his grave.

The heavy taxation on people who use their cars (which, btw, will hit the poor harder than the rich) will force more people into mass transit, and as the need for more mass transit grows, the need for more government programs to fill that need. And then, MORE TAXES.

Seems we’re being driven into the cattle cars to be killed by taxes.

But it won’t necessarily be more taxes at that point, the government will raise fees on using the mass transit.

And so it goes.

It is obvious that this demonic-rat congressman, Oberstar is a crazed jackass. He heads the House transportation and Infrastructure committee, another useless government agency with an inept fool to administrate it.
Perhaps this idiot did not see the tea parties that were an open rebellion against the socialist Marxist taxing system. Gas revenues have fallen because of the prudence of many Americans who have changed their driving habits due to several factors, something that a moron like Overstay ( should be is name) does not see because his is blinded by his Marxist ideology.
I have a pilot program for you, an immediate removal of your worthless self and the department you chair.
By suggesting installing of GPS technology into Americans vehicle’s to monitor mileage shows that this bumptious freak is a collectivist jackal that not only wants to steal our money but also regards the American people as slaves to be monitored and controlled.
If he and is messiah Barrack the illegal have their way the United States of America would be called, the” United Socialist Union of North America.”
Communism is death, it need to go and now.
