"fuel that is taxed at both the state and federal levels"

That tax is not paid by the oil companies....

"Meanwhile the electric cars don't pay gasoline tax, and receive special tax advantages."

Gasoline taxes are used around the world to promote conservation, electric cars don't use oil and to promote their use they get advantages similar to the oil companies who don't need them.
