Tax Dollars Wasted Building EV Charging Stations In Cold Climates

 The federal government wants to spend billions to build charging stations all across the country-including in cold-weather states where electric vehicles are often impractical.

Wyoming has been granted $27 million of the $7.5 billion that the new Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act allocates to states to build electric vehicle charging stations.

President Biden believes that these public charging stations will encourage Americans to buy more electric vehicles.

Some states may see more EV purchases as a result of more charging stations, but EVs cannot defeat the laws of physics and are unlikely to be popular in cold climates.

There is no need for average earners in Wyoming or elsewhere to subsidize higher-earners' electric charging stations with their tax dollars.

If tens of millions of dollars magically appeared with no strings attached in Wyoming or other cold-weather states, the money would almost certainly be put to a better use than electric charging stations.

Just as the federal government did not provide gas stations and Tesla charging stations, it should not be funding charging stations for EVs.
