Yes, drivers of #EVs should pay their fair share of taxes for road maintenance. But taxing providers of free public chargers doesn't do much to incentivize the #ElectricRevolution, especially for apartment dwellers who cannot charge at home for much lower rates than at pay-for public stations.

Why not tack on a VAT for every new $60k+ ICE vehicle sold? There has to be another way to capture those funds from non-EVs.

@giamora In California, I pay a road use tax every year when I register my Tesla to make up for not paying gas taxes. Pretty easy in fact.

@antares I’m about to pay my registration for the year… will be curious what my Fiat 500e pays in said California charges. But at least we’re not paying the $1 in gas tax every time we fill up!
