They gotta make up the gas tax somehow. So you pay a premium to feeeeel
good then another tax to make up for the gas you aren't burning and the
pollution you are spewing (from the tailpipe anyway) and pretty soon
your smugness might be a bit less forthright. At least until the rest
of the tax-paying population increases the subsidies for your Care More
approach to motoring.

It won't be long if EVs catch on in any significant number. You'll be
required to have a special metered outlet installed in the garage (at
your expense, probably several thousand dollars as the electricians will
know a good thing when they see it) and you'll pay road tax on any
electricity used from there. Heavy fines for bypassing, which will be
suspected if your household power usage is high but your charger usage
is low.
Might be easier to just charge you $500 a year for the EV's license
plate.
