The truth about ethanol
http://capitalismmagazine.com/2008/03/archer-daniels-midland-big-corn-and-the-ethanol-hoax/



Archer Daniels Midland has done a good job screwing the American people.
The top leader in the ethanol hoax is Archer Daniels Midland (ADM), the country’s largest producer of ethanol. Ethanol producers and the farm lobby have pressured farm state congressmen into believing that it would be political suicide if they didn’t support subsidized ethanol production. That’s the stick. Campaign contributions play the role of the carrot.

"ADM - Supermarket to the World." More like supermarket of Congress.

So the use of 10% ethanol reduces dependence on foreign oil by 45% yep that totally makes sense. More like the use of 10% ethanol reduces engine life by 45% Also reduces engine performance as the ethanol slowly gluges up the engine

Be aware taking sides on this topic...
Some fields go un-harvest, do to an abundance in corn yields. Most of us have probably heard at some point in time that a farmer was paid to not combine a field..... Also understand that they only use the little white part of the kernel and the rest of the kernel is collected and sold back as live stock feed, not wasted...
The preference of E-anything is yours, but a lot of common complaints flying around in conversations are false. Were not going to starve as a result of Ethanol based fuels.
I hate that this "government" has to get involved in pricing, but I think we all know that this government is greedy and very corrupt, so it is no surprise to me!

I'm glad i have non E fuel where i live...

 

[wannadrag]

The stuff is pure crap.Just glad i have a station here that i can buy gas without it.

Well guess what folks? Here's the bottom line. The gubmint knows nada about how to build a car. They know nada about how to make fuel. They have zero business telling either industry how to do something that they haven't a clue how to do themselves. The gubmint got us into this mess. I think it's up to us to get us out. Fat chance for that, since most people wanna know who's winnin American Idol and the like, rather than the shape their country is really in.

This administration wants us all in coal powered electric cars & it looks like they're out to destroy our internal combustion engines to make it happen quicker.

That's right, and the gubmint listens to people like Al Gore for the science part.

We've gone a bit off topic, but take a look at this.... It pretty much showcases my feelings towards Congress.
It's amazing that this government has time to create junk laws, but cant get together to set a budget until just days before it's due...
