It's not lack of vision. It's that capital demands gambling. Everyone knows you could plough money into big projects in the US and double your money reliably. But the powers that be do not want that. They want to gamble, and try t

I'm thinking that most people will not use the full speed in EU. But these are a design capable of charging everything up to light-duty trucks in the same timescale of a gasoline car. The design is probably overkill for Europe or the U

Yep. And that's good! That's freedom of choice. Similarly, my wife wanted children, and there's no amount of money that could replace the joy of having our child. Everything is better when we have the freedom to make a choice
