I heard similar arguments when I was 4 years old about gun control in
general. Many of the things people told me would never happen because the
American people wouldn't stand for it are happening.
Want to have some fun being paranoid look up glass roads and solar projects.
For current technology its not practical, but it's foreseeable. Now
extrapolate from that. An electrical grid made of the nations roads and
highways. Electric cars being charged by induction directly off the grid.
Real time reporting of electrical usage to be directly debited from your
bank account. Since, driving on public roads has already been deemed a
privilege and not a right then what legal precedent is there to prevent that
from being used for total tracking of all vehicular movement of every
vehicle in America?
Anyway, I think you are being a bit naïve if you don't think that gun
grabbers and power mongers aren't thinking that way.
