The last part of the clip is not part of the article but from the comments.

Note that this is an added tax it doesn't replace any just like the carbon tax and other proposed taxes and fee's.

America it seems is being taxed into third world country status, at a time when jobs are in short supply too.

H.R. 3311 is available via PDF Here

It would seem that Obama has shifted the war on terror to a war on privacy, going by this and many of his other actions.

"You will not see any of your taxes increase one single dime." - Barack Obama

US Representative Earl Blumenauer (D-Oregon) introduced H.R. 3311 earlier this year to appropriate $154,500,000 for research and study into the transition to a per-mile vehicle tax system. The “Road User Fee Pilot Project” would be administered by the US Treasury Department. This agency in turn would issue millions in taxpayer-backed grants to well-connected commercial manufacturers of tolling equipment to help develop the required technology. Within eighteen months of the measure’s passage, the department would file an initial report outlining the best methods for adopting the new federal transportation tax.</P></blockquote><div style="height: 2px; font-size: 2px; background: #dcdcdc; border-bottom: solid 1px #f5f5f5; margin: 2px 4px;"></div><blockquote style="text-align: left; padding: 0px 8px; margin: 4px 0px 8px 0px; background: transparent; border: none;" cite="http://www.thetruthaboutcars.com/uncle-sam-eyes-vehicle-tracking-tax/"><P>A lot of people, not all, but a lot, are against the proposed health care reforms because the don’t want the government knowing their private medical affairs. </p> <P>So who drives where and when should be REAL popular.</P></blockquote></div><div style="margin: 0px 6px 6px 4px;"><table style="font-size: 11px;border-spacing: 0px;padding: 0px;" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" width="100%"><tr><td style="background:transparent;border-width:0px;padding:0px;">&nbsp;</td><td align="right" style="background:transparent;border-width:0px;padding:0px;width:107px" width="107"><a href="http://clipmarks.com/share/9060C615-5D95-47A9-8B1E-145727004C10/blog/" title="blog or email this clip"><img src="http://content7.clipmarks.com/images/c2b-foot.png" border="0" alt="blog it" width="107" height="17" style="border-width:0px;padding:0px;margin:0px;" /></a></td></tr></table></div></div>
