Lengthy but informative. Cars will run even less efficiently than they do now. But hey, prices will necessarily skyrocket.

Ethanol damages gaskets, seals, rubber, and wide band O2 sensors. I have had three cars/trucks that have had catalytic converter O2 sensors damaged by ethanol.
I’ve had to rebuild virtually every 2 cycle and some 4 cycle yard machine engines because of it. It is especially bad on things like 2 cycle engine carburetor fuel diaphragms and gaskets.
A pox on anyone who participates in any part of this!

Tax revenues will increase as we have to buy more gallons to go the same distance.

No one who cares about the middle class in this country, or the poor worldwide, would suggest burning more food for fuel.

ALL of the car manufacturers that market in the US have told the EPA that if they do that... it will be the EPA that will pay for warranty related damage due to this failed fuel concoction.

Whenever the percentage of ethanol changes, my car’s MPG is proportionally invesely impacted. Ethanol is to cars what high fructose corn syrup is to people.

The 10% level was a failure, so naturally liberals call for increasing the level, which will be a worse failure, so liberals will want it raised even more, and more, ....

Food is for eating, both for humans and for our animals that we eat.
Food is not for wasting by turning into alcohol and tearing up vehicles, and tools.

Interesting that the formula one and the drag racers have been burning Methanol and nitromethane for years perhaps the auto industry and small engine industry should do their part and make cars and engines that will handle the ethanol.

I thank GOD that I had the good sense back in 2010 to buy a diesel fueled car rather than the choices of gas or hybrid! Yes, the government could very well futz with that, it is the government after all! I won’t say that I saw this coming but it was in the back of my mind!
