MODERATORS
@Zagorath
"Road usage" has been taxed through the fuel excise paid at the bowser. This method is far from perfect, but it does allow reasonably anonymous travel.
In the future, the gov't will have (at least) two ways of taxing the road usage of EVs.
One way will be fair, equitable, based on 'mileage', and anonymous.
The other way will permit the government to conduct 'real time' monitoring of every vehicle's speed and position.
Our gov't will choose this second option, and with bipartisan support.
