I have to just scratch my head. Can't believe the total inability to understand simple English here. Maybe, just maybe they don't want to.

Some of those locations are making me laugh my ass off, and seem like a waste other than for the contractor building them and the supplier selling parts and electric company taxpayer subsidized grid expansion. Just trying to be real here.. Look at the costs of ev, then knowing what they are ask yourself If it makes sense to put them in economically deprived areas, and rural locations. I just don't see the demand for ev chargers on rural tribal lands, maybe in the parking lots of the casinos.. edit..I looked at Haines, ak..I can see that one as tourist location, and fishing, rv. How about a survey of how many ev's are in those areas to use them, or how it would benefit tourism there.. I mean, we have heard for years most folks charge at home due to cost. Help a brotha out and 'splain it to me. Most drivers and EV owners charge easily at home and only drive 39.7 miles a day or less.

Ok, I read the list, and only a few give heartburn now.

How do the EV drivers pay their share of the cost of road maintenance and repairs?
Just asking
Internal combustion vehicles pay road tax with every gallon of fuel they buy
Just how are they charging the EV owners
I will love to see the answer to this

One is a fee added to the registration fee based on miles driven. Another possibility would be a surcharge added to the charging stations electrical use, I think this is the most likely in the future. Just like the taxes added to telephone and cable bills. it would also be simple since it could be charged on kilowatt used.

Anybody see the Alpha Motor Co many Super Wolf? I think it's a sharp looking truck. I would love to have one with a diesel but over 300 mile range doesn't seem terrible bad for an EV.

Are they going to tax all electric bills to cover road maintenance? Are we all going to wind up paying for roads on our electric bills? There has to be a plan. I fear the American public will be screwed again

You sure are scared of the future.
Have no fear, it'll be OK.

Tax the drivers. The ones who choose to live 20, 30, 40 miles from work.
In Slovenia you buy at a gas station or on line toll passes. Little cameras on the limited access highways taking photos of plates. Not registered, you get fined. You can get all sorts of passes to suit your driving. The more you use the roads the more you pay as it should be. I bought unlimited use for 1 week...18 euro. Croatia had brand new toll booths with tickets and actual people but also e passes.

In the communist, shit, socialist, fuck, Nazi, asshole, CCP, bitch country of Singapore, they tax you by the mile driven (among other things).
Seems fair to me.

Tax bicyclists.... they freeload on the asphalt. They suck as citizens of the highway.
