It’s pretty easy to see where this is going in the US.
Subsidize electrics.
Penalize petroleums.
Hope that big wind and sleazy solar gives everybody a little juice to make it to the liquor store.

I don’t think it’s going to happen that way. In fact, I think there’s a good chance we will see surcharges added to electric bills to offset the lost fuel tax revenues from these cars.

While I agree that we aren’t ready to handle a 100% electric car fleet now, there’s no question that advances in battery storage and charging time have been made in leaps and bounds in recent years.
