It's strange to see all this whining about electric cars from the US.
In the UK people have been charging cars at home, work, and at car parks for ages, and we've not heard the electric companies whining about infrastructure costs. They've been rubbing their hands at the thought of all that electricity they're going to sell, and got the fuck on with it.
I suspect articles like this are just more pro-oil propaganda.
It's just that in America they realized if they complain enough, they get to rub they're hands gleefully at the thought of all that electricity they're going to sell, AND all the public money they're going to get to upgrade the grid!
