Better yet, get politicians real mad at some vehicle manufacturer, and then have the manufacturer install the infrastructure out of their pocket, despite the fact that you know nothing about demand for such a thing at your location.

You'd still lose money because the monthly demand charges alone are more than the revenue of a handful of people charging for $5 at a time.
