IMO there's a real possibility government regulation (in response to greenhouse emissions) may force EV's on us---warts and all---significantly before the free market system has a say in the matter. A number of countries (i.e., China, Germany, Japan, etc.) are already implementing some form of regulation forcing the hand of car manufacturers in terms of ICE vs. EV production.
This, IMHO, is what gets peoples bowles in a uproar. Their going to take your guns!!!
Americans have a Dog given right to burn all the fuel we want! And instead of telling people that think they will be fine with at least one of their cars not burning gas we shriek "IT Won't Work! IT Won't Work!IT Won't Work!" Even when others make it work. I would think that if a third of cars where charging at home I would thank them for leaving the gas for my old truck.
