Since you posted almost exactly the same comment further up the thread. It's important to consider that ICE vehicles have been puking out air pollution and CO2 for more than a century, killing thousands, if not millions of people and contributing greatly to climate change, which is getting worse.
It frustrates me that people take umbrage at being charged money for using energy and polluting the environment.

I take issue with it when those people are mostly only the people who do so because they cannot afford to do better (which will likely be the case in 2035+).
