What “new tax” do cities like Seattle, San Diego, Los Angeles and New York have in mind for taxpayers these days? According to an interview of San Diego, CA Supervisor Kristin Gaspar, taxpayers need to be aware of a little known secret emerging in cities and states around the country and world. City and state governments are seriously discussing a black box and data tracker in every vehicle that transports you. In 2013, 96% of every new car sold in the United States came with a black box, and as of Sept. 1, 2014, every new vehicle must have one installed. The black box in automobiles today has a data tracking system to track your every move. Kristin Gaspar explains during her televised interview on KUSI that we have already been paying for transit taxes to cover road reparations; we also have a gas tax, and now the government wants to tax you again on traffic congestion to pay for transit repairs.
Kristin Gaspar reminds us that our local and state governments have not delivered on their original promise to fix roads. In fact, our local and state governments have run out of money and are coming back to taxpayers for more money. Currently, San Diego, CA government officials at SANDAG are discussing adding a congestion tax to drivers and she wants you to be aware they are quietly moving forward. SANDAG wants to add a “congestion tax” to prevent drivers in San Diego County from driving into main thoroughfares during rush hours. They will do this by charging a congestion tax that charges drivers for the use of roads in highly congested urban areas to limit traffic jams.
