Diesel for off the road tractors, and earth movers is untaxed, and is dyed

I know about using heating oil being illegal. But sure enough, I googled
this subject and various state DOT's are trying to get Bio-Diesel
categorized for taxation. Still they are not talking about going after
solar power, but I am sure that is coming next. By the way, there is a
new "initiative" called "open roads", which is everything but open
roads. They are trying to put RFID transponders in every car and extract
tolls from everywhere you drive.
