There's a per-mile vehicle tax buried in Biden's infrastructure bill

No, there is money to test such a program. Key difference there. Be honest.

Yes, it’s a pilot program, because they intend to never implement it fully?

Maybe they do, maybe they don't. That's the whole point of doing a pilot, to determine if it's viable or not as they envision it.

It’s a voluntary pilot program. It’s dishonest to omit this extremely relevant detail.

Didn't Federal Income Taxes start as a voluntary pilot program?

If you think it's not going to be "viable" regardless of the outcome, I have a bridge to sell you.

When did I say I thought that? You do realize that pointing out the blatant dishonesty of the OP is mutually exclusive of my opinion of this pilot program, right?

No idea.

No, retard, I just said they need to have a surcharge on their vehicle registrations. Why do your policies always hurt the poor and working people the most?

Also, let's see a link to your lie that "it would be an alternative to the gas tax".

listen up you fat shit for brains moron, POOR people are not hurt by a tax on elec car miles driven UNLESS they buy an elec car.

and don't start calling me names, face ****

What fair method of taxing electric vehicle owners for road maintenance do you propose? Gas vehicles should be exempt. imo.

Stop the 50% subsidy on the list price?

No, they are hurt by the per mile tax that you Nazis are proposing,

Welcome to America. The more you use the roads the more you pay for the upkeep.

What upkeep?

This just you Nazis gouging the working class again.

Just how much of the 19 cent federal tax do you think goes to emission control?

Ugh, don't know. My point was,we spend a ton on emission and pollution control, I don't know how much of that comes from vehicle emissions but I would imagine quite a bit.

If we are to all be driving electric, emissions and carbon in the air should be reduced significantly, thus less spent on pollution control.

New passenger vehicles are 98-99% cleaner for most tailpipe pollutants compared to the 1960s.

The electricity will still have to be generated for the new cars.
