And that’s just the States getting income to repair state roads - wait until Congress passes a federal law to generate funds to repair the interstate system. Right now these laws are based on mileage traveled, but that is not reliable.

They will, sooner or later, make the tax on power used which will be collected on home power bills and at charging stations.

New home construction will be required to have in-home charging stations as well, adding significantly to the home costs. Then, later that will be made retroactive to all homes.

Herein lies the angle that explains why the Dems are pushing EVs : Federal government control of electricity - that will likely be coupled with your social credit score and determine the level of personal transportation use or not ...

Where you live is the biggest factor, and EV road trips could lead to sticker shock
