Not exactly. Most of the states have an EV registration fee to cover the lost gas tax revenue. I’m sure all of the states will have one in the not too distant future. Many of your other assertions are not valid. For example, regarding the number of charging stations in the US, every garage is a recharging station. Third party recharging stations, such as Tesla, Electrify America, etc. are being built out as EV numbers increase.

When I can fill up an EV in the same time as filling up a normal car, have as many charging stations as gas stations, the true miles an EV can go on 1 charge compared to a full tank of gas, and no wait lines at charging stations.
We should stop subsidizing the purchase of an EV at the same time have a tax on each EV based on the miles they drive to help pay for roads. Gas cars pay tax at the pump for road maintenance while the EV pays not road tax, we need to change that
