Incoming Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg appears to think it’s a good idea to tax Americans for the number of miles they drive. It is a policy he endorsed as a Democratic presidential candidate.
The Biden Administration is actively searching for ways to fund its ambitious $1 trillion infrastructure plan. Buttigieg, the former ineffective mayor of South Bend, Ind., couldn’t even keep the potholes filled.

Why doesn’t each state pay for its infrastructure problems? This is another bailout. It’s not like the road projects of the 1950s. These are to shore up irresponsible states who don’t take care of their infrastructure.
This is as businesses, Americans, the tourist industry, and so on, are struggling. Democrats will tax anything that moves or doesn’t move. We are getting taxed from every angle for everything we do in every way possible and these politicians just keep spending with no sign of stopping.
The Democrats are talking about congestion taxing, raising tolls, and gas prices are going to go up as Biden’s team is crashing the energy sector.
Yesterday, @USDOT nominee @PeteButtigieg said he’s open to raising the gas tax on the American people to pay for government’s wasteful spending. There is absolutely NO reason we should be placing that burden on taxpayers. Watch more below: pic.twitter.com/n8FEj32BkO

put a mileage tax on buttGEEG sphincter and pay off the national debt in a few days.
One more step in the 1984 wet dream.
Lock down your population and keep them under foot of government.
Take away their rights to self defense.
Keep them poor and dependent.
The Government already does that. It’s called a Gasoline Tax. For Electric Car owners it’s Hidden in your Electric Bill.
I am all for a mileage tax on electric cars which currently pay no federal nor state gasoline taxes that go to build and maintain our highways. I might even go with a mileage tax on the rest of us if all fuel taxes are eliminated. Of course that won’t happen, government never eliminates any taxes.
What they REALLY want is to monitor ALL movements in the name of a tax.
