My Gawd It's Coming
Geezus last night I had a rough night out at the Casinos...first was the delux buffet and then it was gambling and drinking till the early morining hours.... I staggered home exhausted and went to bed and had this dream....
I dreamt that every car in the USA had a black box in it that kept track of the miles you drove and what roads you were on like a GPS system will..and at the end of the month you were billed according to how many miles and WHAT roads you used..the higher usage roads were charged at a higher rate while rural roads with little traffic are charged very little....What a concept for increased government revenue...reduction of oil dependence , pollution, congestion and finally a means to get people outa their cars and onto public transportation....I would even venture that it could reduce gasoline taxes, but knowing government they will never take away a source of revenue once in place. I can see it now ...My Gawd what a vision and it's coming...and sooner than may think....
