This kind of makes sense to me.

Gas stations are already setup as places where cars are coming and going frequently. As cars move from gas to electric, the use of these places transitions smoothly.

It's a pigouvian tax: tax the things we want less of; in this case gas stations without chargers. I always kind of like those.

Could work.

No, we want wider adoption of electric vehicles. Don't lose sight of the goal
Did you misread the title? This would encourage more chargers, which helps EV drivers.
