Biden considers a mileage tax on all vehicles

Perhaps gasoline taxes are not *woke* enough?

Biden administration is considering a *mileage tax* on ALL VEHICLES (including Electric Vehicles). More taxes for everyone, coming soon.

===================

“The gas tax used to be the obvious way to do it; it’s not anymore… So, a so-called vehicle miles traveled tax or a mileage tax, whatever you want to call it, could be the way to do it.”

“The levy would tax drivers on the number of miles they travel, as opposed to the amount of gasoline they consume, which is no longer a reliable stream of income with so many electric cars on the road.”

    (That's sarcasm .... well sort of anyway ...)
