California trying GPS-tracking mileage tax for 2016 - MSN Autos
In an effort to shore up declining gas tax revenue due to more fuel-efficient cars, California wants to try charging car owners by the mile instead of having them pay at the pump.
DeSaulnier hasn't specified the tax rate, but last year, the Government Accountability Office suggested a national mileage tax ranging between 0.9 and 2.2 cents per mile. In Oregon, when that pilot begins in 2015, the rate will be 1.5 cents.
Thats some Orwellian shit right there.
