Not here in WA, at least I don't think so. But our gas tax is 52 cents per


gallon and I KNOW I'm not paying that for lights in my house. That can be remedied by charging a different tax rate to charge cars than you do homes. Of course, electricity everywhere in the US is pretty heavily subsidized, too. (The feds brought us our hydro power...thanks FDR!) Then there are the costs to deal with emissions from gasoline powered cars.

Not all costs are apparent, but I should think that taxation is not that tough a problem to solve.
