So why haven't the guberment coin counters gone after the hybrid and electric cars? Electricity is a fuel, and just in a different form. Seems hypocritical to go after someone using WASTE V.O. when power off the grid for electric cars merely transplants the pollution. (also note that electric cars have a massive disposal problem so far)

Another argument might be the relationship of fuel to mileage. If you are going to consider this a road tax, shouldn't the tax be based on used mileage instead of an arbitrary figure based on MPG?

Things to go 'DUH' by....
