An anonymous reader writes "Apparently, since gas consumption is going down and fuel efficient cars are going up, the government is looking into a new form of taxing us to create revenue for transportation projects. This new system is a "by the mile tax" requiring GPS in cars so it can track the mileage http://www.mcclatchydc.com/nation/story/71078.html. Once a month the data gets uploaded to a billing center and you are conveniently taxed. http://www.kansascity.com/business/story/1299981.html. Not only will they have all your information, and possibly credit card info for all you automatic payees. They now can see, where your car has been as well."
