It would just be nice if all these charging stations weren't being built on the taxpayers' dime. The Gov. doesn't subsidize someone when they want to open a gas station. It's just the opposite. They pay all kinds of fees to the gov. be allowed to build the damn thing.
The Tesla ones are all self funded. They are only for tesla use, and the charge electricity is either pay per use or paid for by Tesla.
I agree with your statement though, many of the others are getting government assistance. Seems like a weird way to spend government money.
