It's just short-term thinking of managerial class running companies like Ford or GM, not lack of infrastructure. Thanks to Tesla U.S. has pretty good charging network. And it's very cheap to build (relatively speaking). During the years that Tesla was investing in world-wide charging network despite loosing money, GM and Ford had plenty of profits they could have invested in that obvious un-blocker of EV adoption. They didn't but that's on them and their management. The state (what you call "us") doesn't need to be involved. If Tesla alone was able to build and fund U.S.-wide network, if every other car company in U.S. chipped in, charging network could have been several times bigger today. It'll be several times bigger, it'll just take few more years. The real blocker is lack of good EV cars, priced competitively. Chinese have those which is why EU is now panicking and creating additional, punishing tariffs on Chinese cars, to protect their mis-managed car industry. And it will work for a few years, until Chinese build factories in Europe and crush European car makers anyway.
