Why in the standard model doesn't charge need a boson like mass needs the Higgs boson?

The Higgs boson is a fundamental particle in the Standard Model of particle physics. It is responsible for giving particles their mass through the Higgs mechanism. Without the Higgs boson, particles would not have mass and therefore would not be able to interact through the electromagnetic force, meaning that charge would not exist.
The Higgs boson is not directly related to charge. However, it is important for the existence of charge as it gives particles their mass, which allows them to interact through the electromagnetic force. Without the Higgs boson, charge would not be possible.
No, charge cannot exist without the Higgs boson. As mentioned before, without the Higgs boson, particles would not have mass and therefore would not be able to interact through the electromagnetic force, meaning that charge would not exist.
The Higgs boson does not directly interact with charge. It is responsible for giving particles their mass, which allows them to interact through the electromagnetic force and exhibit charge.
No, the Higgs boson is not the only particle responsible for charge. The electromagnetic force is also mediated by the photon, another fundamental particle in the Standard Model. However, the Higgs boson is necessary for the existence of charge as it gives particles their mass.
