I personally think Govt should ban home charging if they are going to ban non-EV vehicles.
How is that rich people with homes charge at home while everyone else has to queue up and waste their time at charging stations.
Doesn't seem fair at all. Its a extra time tax on the poor.
- alexb_ 4y agoThis is nonsensical. You are taking away extremely useful technologies from people who can afford a parking space next to a power outlet, all because it's not fair to people who don't have that.
- dominotw 4y ago>This is nonsensical. Whats nonsensical is thinking people will vote to increase taxes on themselves to improve public infrastructure if it doesn't benefit them. we shouldn't create public policy expecting ppl to vote for it purely out of goodness of their hearts.
- cortesoft 4y agoSo your solution to some people having an easier time charging is to make it worse for everyone?
- aidenn0 4y agoThere are people who suggest banning private schools so that the wealthy and powerful will be incentivized to improve public schooling. GP seems to apply the same logic to EV charging.
- dominotw 4y agoExactly!!!. Thats one of the example I had in mind.
- xboxnolifes 4y agoWhich is a bad idea, considering public school admissions are generally district based, so only only rich districts, the ones with already generally better schools, would (maybe) improve. This fixes nothing.
- dominotw 4y agoCorrect. This logic is used to ban charter schools in many areas of the country. No point rehashing the same logic again.
- bfors 4y agoWouldn't that increase charging queue times for the poor?
- dominotw 4y agoNo because there would be a bigger push to develop public infrastructure. Charters vs public schools, same logic.
- frumper 4y agoI'm not sure how you'd effectively enforce that. Charging happens at standard power levels.
