I wonder how long it will be before the Free Enterprize System prices electricity from EV recharging stations such that it costs about as much (or more, years into the future) per mile - based on some average and ever-changing pricing formula - to drive them as an equivalent size gasoline or diesel powered vehicle?

I can't imagine free or dirt cheap EV "refueling" lasting too long into the future. Cheap refueling electricity is probably viewed as a "loss leader product" right now to get us into the EV buying mood.

With a few (6 or 10) L2 stations for free most businesses would not even notice a blip in the total electric bill. Although it would most likely bring in more sales.

Actually by the time the commercial equipment is installed to monitor and collect a fee the cost is probably higher than giving out the electric for free with an open un-metered connection.
