4. Ethanol. Farmers get billions of your tax dollars to grow food for an energy program that actually requires much more energy to create the energy in the program than any scientist can seemingly explain that the energy program might someday produce. It’s called cronyism and it’s a SCAM! Ethanol is a scam.

3. When you start to look at the implications,
it's mind boggling.

Either you eat, or you drive your car. Cuz the corn that went into that ethanold could have been eaten. Just imagine the shock, the outrage around the world. As US drivers are out there, in their SUV's and Hummers while people in other countries riot and starve.
Ugly and it's going to get worse.

I agree with Ya NNNOLHI

4. Call it what it is
a "crime against humanity".

The people who thought up this monstrosity and brought it into being ought to be treated no better than any other mega-mass murderers.
