So, the electric recharges are free? Of course they aren't.

Charging times may vary due to several factors. What is your power source? How much power can your electric car handle? How can drivers charge their vehicles and get back on the road more quickly? Depending on an electric vehicle power source and battery capacity, drivers can charge their cars in as little as 30 minutes.

Unfortunately, that isn’t the standard. Most drivers will need about a couple of days (roughly 40 hours) to charge a fully depleted electric car battery if they use the standard three-prong plugs found in mobile devices, laptops, and the walls of most homes.

How long does it take to put gas into your car? If that is the best case scenario, one can only imagine the lines at the charging stations. And what happens when you have huge traffic jams due to some idiots who forgot to charge their cars?

Let the marketplace control the transition from gas to electric or some other propulsion system. The USG should stay out of it. It takes many years to develop the infrastructure. The capital investment in the internal combustion engine is massive affecting tens of millions of jobs. .

You just made me realize that as this foolishness progresses, Electric Vehicle pirates will be active around long haul charging stations.   How will the queer little snowflakes survive that eventuality?
