Your Money's No Good – On The Roads, That Is by Eric Peters

Your Money's No Good – On The Roads, That Is by Eric Peters: "The creepy part is that just like trying to fly without being gate raped, in states that have these systems in place – Florida, for example – there is no opting out. If you want to use the Florida Turnpike you can't use cash. You must have a transponder. If you don't have one and run the road, they're ready for you. The state is rolling out a license plate recognition system that will automatically cuff n' stuff you – or at least, send you a bill for using the road.

Plus a 'processing fee.'

There's no recourse – and no appeal. Other than simply staying home.

The tactic is an example of the left-statist 'nudge' (at gunpoint) advocated by the loathsome coercive utopian Cass Sunstein, mentor to his Obamaness but by no means a phenomenon exclusive to the political left. The right is just as thuggish – witness the TSA and its low-rent Stalinism. They both have the same objectives: Power and control for them; powerlessness and submission for you and me."
