Outside which... that's more expensive then GPS would be... and most cars going foward are going to have GPS put in them by default anyway, as GPS technology is getting quite cheap.

Besides, where you are from... you should know about how the government doesn't always provide paved roads either.

The second sentence shows your general misunderstanding of economics.  Need I go further?

So your solution is to make a new law requiring GPS on all vehicles, then spend trillions of dollars to put GPS devices on all vehicles, then spend trillions of dollars monitoring vehicles to make sure they have GPS devices on them, all while hampering economic activity by greatly increasing the cost of consumption.  Thats a great idea, you should be president.  Wait, lets privatize that to and name you king, since you seem to be an expert on everything.

Except... you wouldn't need to?  It's going to get to the point of where the GPS is already in everyones car already, fairly shortly.

In a good 10 years or so... it actually would be quite easy to pull off.  Heck, Germany is already pulling it off with trucks and a few cameras on various parts of the road to match up with GPS data and see who doesn't have GPS.

Again you keep saying "Can't happen!"

With things... that are happening.   In a few years Germany doesn't expect to need the cameras either.

 

Also, no, i'm not an expert on everything.  I just actually bother to research stuff before I post an opinion on something.

That's the advantage of the internet.  If you want you can inform yourself on a subject before you take a side.
