19. Corn ethanol is a crock of shit.

There are other possibilities out there that may prove much better, such as algae.

Corn ethanol is nothing but a bribe to Iowans and the agriculture industry. It drives up food prices, it's a net energy loss, it's terrible for the environment, and it will never be able to make much difference.

Anyone who tells you corn ethanol is a good idea is either a huckster or a fool.
