He does not understand. Israeli government isnt paying for this either, other than import tax breaks. In Denmark the local governments have entered into joint venture agreements with Better Place to build the infrastructure. In Hawaii there is a small pilot project partly funded by a DOE grant to study the cost/benefits under actual driving conditions. However this is very much a for profit enterprise funded by venture capitol.
Maybe people just assume something else because when they hear about electric cars they assume it is a government green energy boondoggle since we have had so many of those.
