I say make the car companies put in charging like Tesla.
Would you really want this? Would you want GM to build filling stations
too?
Think about it. Would you want EVs - or ICEVs, for that matter - to be like
inkjet printers? Look how much OEM ink cartridges cost, and how hard the
printer makers work to keep you from using third party or refilled carts.
Henry Ford was famous for buying up companies that made parts to build
his cars. When he started buying up gas stations, the federal government
prosecuted him for anti-trust. They said, "If you monopolize the gas
stations, you'll overcharge people." Ford replied, "If I owned the
filling stations, I'd *give* away the cars."
