NC proposed bill: Ban any 'free' EV charging stations in the state

[vi edit]

It's the same with pickup trucks. So many shiny, clean bed trucks in suburbs that might get used a couple times a year. But I *might* need it!

American excess is a noose around our progress.

Nothing like some good ole fashioned small government virtue signaling brought to legislation. I can smell the hypocrisy from here.

free market anyone? Bueller?

I mean, I expect that by offering free electric charging, they are drawing in a wealthier, more up-market customer, who will then buy things with higher profit margins for the retailer. Thus potentially allowing _lower_ prices overall.

In reality, there is probably only a handful of free chargers available for the public and this just more virtue signaling.

Elon is becoming more political. Abbot seems to be his kinda guy.

And like most republicans is going to vote against his own interests in order to get a tax break.
