Gee, I wonder how much of SC citizen tax dollars will go into helping out the 80 or so owners of electric cars in SC. Bad ideas certainly have legs at all levels of government.

How much will the fee be for charging and how will they measure the charge you received.

If South Carolina needs 80 Charging stations, Texas will need 714 Charging stations. The article mentioned these will be needed for the Chey Volt. If that is the case, Texas can get by with 2 Charging stations for the Volt drivers in Austin.

We don’t want them to go anywhere else in the state.

Time to come up with an entrepreneurial solution to be built next door to these stations: let’s seeeee.... something that car owners can do for the eight hours that their cars are charging.... gotta think about this one.

Invest in Battery stock it should be going up. No electric golf cart is safe if left alone, I have many friends who have had their batteries stolen. The same will be with the electric cars.

Extension cord stock as well, lol

They already are getting screwed. Our grandkid’s savings are being drained into GM and thousands of other insane programs as we speak.

How many cars can the average charging station accommodate at the same time? Won’t each car need to be hooked up to the charger for several hours? It won’t be like a regular gas station where you pull in, fill the tank, then go on your way a few minutes later.

Questions for the smug Electric car owners.

1) Who is going to pay for the electric for you car? The tax payer or you?

2) Are you prepared for a huge increase in your monthly electric bill?

3) Are you prepared to admit that dirty energy like coal and fossil fuels are necessary to produce the electric for your fancy new car? Because the overwhelming majority of electric is produced by coal.

Just watch, the distance between recharge stations will be greater than the battery can move the car
