and jobs like Labor Ready where you can work for a couple hours and get 40-60 bucks a day doesnt really get used by those in need of the money. around me its more used by drug addicts so they can get high daily... i need to get off unemplyoment. my skills arent needed by many jobs and im going fulltime college so hard to find one flexable enough. being main income bringer or.. only one makes it tough.

No. That is all I have to say to you sir.





As I read this I got the impression that the tax proposed here is intended to get the Electric Vehicle drivers to be paying some sort of usage tax on the roads, not exempting them from it. It's still a load of bull since it will hit fossil fuel powered owners double. It'd be much easier to put a secondary meter on the charging units for those cars. I also see the "feasibility studies" and the "administrative costs" taking up far more than the revenue that will be generated from something like this. It would take years to set up, years more to break even, and is just generally a bad idea. We need less government. When they learn to pear back and cut their costs and STICK TO A GOT-DANGED BUDGET like the rest of us have to do, then maybe we can get some traction back as a nation.

Why do you think that they put GPS units in almost all new cars produced today? The tech is already there, they just have to pass a law to be able to hook up the older cars. But I will agree with the other guy above; go ahead and try; and Charlton Heston, (with guns) "Pry then from my cold dead hands". You get the point.

If they want this to pass they will tack it on as part of another popular bill without saying anything about it. Look at all the shit that was tacked on to obama care. It will be years before we truly know what was included in that abortion.

The first article wasn't very clear. After reading the 2nd, I agree with you.

Which is why I wanted to let people know what they were thinking, or are thinking. Just keep your ears up.
