In an interview published in Tuesday's Detroit News, Akerson floated the idea of a $1 a gallon increase in the gas tax as a way to encourage buyers to purchase smaller, more fuel efficient cars. Greg Martin, spokesman for GM's Washington office, confirmed that the quotes reflect Akerson's and GM's view.
I love the way it is phrased, "encourage". In other words, by taxing gas, we will force [the more proper word] automobile owners to buy something they don't want. But if car owners switch to electric cars, will they really save money? Of course not! Washington State has already dove into solving that tax problem you may read in this story here.
A bill in Washington state would tax electric vehicle drivers for the gas they aren't using to power their cars. As Sarah Gardner reports, it's all about finding new ways to pay for growing budget deficits.
Ta Da. If they don't get you coming, they will certainly get you going. So go ahead. Buy a stupid electric car that you won't want to leave your street with just in case you run out of power. And all of this being done in the name of a hoax of saving the environment, climate change, or Global Warming.
Now in the CNN story, it claims the Feds charge only a mere 18.4 cents per gallon tax in an attempt to make it look like government isn't charging enough gasoline taxes, but according to this document that truth is deceiving. Some states such as California and New York pay almost 70 cents per gallon.
The truth is, both Democrats and Republicans both centrally plan by being the Mobsters that businesses must go through to sell a product. They both are also the ones that businesses pay to maintain their monopolies. We have seen what destruction government has had on agriculture, housing, and now energy and every other industry it has stuck its hands into.
It is time to vote Libertarian or Constitution Party. It is time to save liberty and freedom.
