If its possible for the Government dead heads to tax something, they will. Count on it, and with technology to help them its a no brainier. However, technology can work both ways and they haven't figured that one out yet. You know you own an old tractor when.....Penetrating oil discussions are known as 'politics'. It's simply a matter of follow the money. I said to a colleague some years ago that EV will be a bit of a fad unless there is a way to charge money for their use (pun intended). He is adamant that will not happen. I pointed out that Hydrogen is more likely long term as it is easier for big business to make a profit from it. Governments will always find a way to tax. They're already putting extra taxes on EVs in many states. The govt does not like it one little bit that people with solar panels and an EV could be in control of their own fuel source.

I think it is more about big business making money than government taxes.

So can people who make producer gas generators. Independence from liquid fuels, using renewable fallen timber or mill off cuts, from your own property, to run a generator or even a motor vehicle. Bypass the Govt taxes all together. These renegade preppers !!
I'm busy now, do you mind if I ignore you later ?
