    Vehicle mileage tax?

    The United Nations Agenda 21 policies prides themselves in embracing the Green Agenda which includes getting people out of their cars.

    In another defeat for humanity and liberty and another victory for the globalist Agenda 21 policies, Oregon has become the first state to implement a vehicle mileage tax (VMT) whereby a motorist is taxed by the number of miles that they drive rather than the amount of gasoline used.
    A little widget plugs into the Onboard Diagnostics (OBD) port that all cars manufactured since the middle of the 1990’s. The device subsequently plugs into your car’s computer, where the data about your mileage. However, this is just the beginning for the “big brotherism” as the system is also capable of monitoring your speed, rate of acceleration or whether you are being a good citizen by wearing a seatbelt. Oregon and their VMT is merely a beta test and will serve as a means to extract more money from its citizens and to begin to implement increasingly punitive Agenda 21 policies.

    "Oregon State Highway Vehicle Miles Traveled (VMT)

    Introduction
    Oregon State Highway VMT
    Oregon State Highway VMT by County
    Introduction
    Vehicle Miles of Travel (VMT) is the sum of distances traveled by all motor vehicles in a specified system of highways for a given period of time.

    The VMT for each road section is calculated by multiplying the average daily traffic (ADT) by the length of the road section and the length of the time period. Those section VMTs are summed to calculate the VMT for a road or road system.

    The VMT is used to determine the amount of use that a highway or system of highways receives over a given period of time. The VMTs supplied here are annual vehicle miles traveled for Oregon ´s state highway system."

    WTF is this shit?
    "And how we burned in the camps later thinking, what would things have been like, if every security operative, when he went out at night to make an arrest, had been uncertain, whether he would return alive and had to say good-bye to his family?"

    Another good reason to stick with older vehicles if you're mechanically-inclined. My daily driver is a 1992 Jeep Cherokee that is about to turn 400,000 miles. Manual transmission, crank windows, steel bumpers, no airbags, no ABS, no electronic garbage, steel "headliner", no carpet, and best of all, no OBD port. If I didn't have to worry about constantly repairing rust I'd keep the thing forever.

    The value of pre-1996 vehicles just went up in Ore-gone.
