@sfringer @arstechnica Ehhh OK hear me out. Yes fuck Republicans. BUT gas tax usually pays for road construction that even EV's use....at least until we get the hover car. So if EV's don't use gas, that money for construction products has to come from somewhere. HOWEVER. As the article makes it clear this had nothing to do with fair share. This is a Republican dick move who is actively hostel to EV's.
So on the surface....yes. But when 1 in 20 cars are EV's and the gas tax hasn't gone up since the 1990's the reason is obvious: Republicans are just fucking assholes.
