Its none of their business.

And even if it was, it can be used unscrupulously. Government has shown a remarkable inability to protect private data.

Gas taxes are better. You just have to adjust occassionally as the average fuel efficiency goes up.
Sounds like a good idea. No need for further government intrusion.

The point being that they can already track your every move, even when you are not in your car. I blame Bush.

For those who say, "If you have nothing to hide, what does it matter?", I ask is it okay if government agents randomly drop by your house to inspect your computer, your papers, your closets and drawers, your financial records, etc.?

If there's nothing to hide, why would it matter?

Sure, if they give me enough notice I'll have tea and cookies ready.
