Okay thanks. That puts my mind to rest. What about charging the batteries? Is that free? Also it seems like the loss of revenue from gas taxes will have to be made up somehow too.

The Democrats in my neck of the woods are already working in that, as they have lost revenue from the pandemic. Some of their ideas (seriously):

1. Put a camera on each end of every bridge. Then when you cross a bridge, you get a bill in the mail. This, of course, makes every bridge a toll bridge.

2. Pay a fee based on how many miles you drive every year. My state has annual mandatory car inspections. So it’s quite easy for them to get everyone’s mileage.

That’s what I’ve heard so far. But given that our governor is a tyrant, I expect additional burdensome ideas in the future.
