I would guess that about 1% of the population cares about this issue, and then it’s way down their priority list.
I think all welfare for businesses is wrong.
It is, however, way, way, way down the list of things in America that require immediate attention.
Well, if it’s a given that it’s “flawed” — then we don’t need Rush or The Great One to weigh in.
Attacking Trump 24/7 is not going to endear his supporters to Cruz quite the opposite in fact. Your are hurting Cruz more then helping him with your constant Trump bashing.
Mountain out of a molehill.
If you campaign in Iowa you have to take the party line on supporting Ethanol as Iowa is a big corn growing state.
Doesn’t mean Trump totally buys this, it’s is just part of the ritual when you campaign there.

Byron York: Ted Cruz opens up on immigration
pull quote:
“Two other Cruz amendments would have increased the number of high-skilled temporary workers and the number of total immigrants allowed into this country legally each year. “I am an unapologetic advocate of legal immigration,” Cruz told me...”
My point, as Ann Coulter has written, it is legal immigration that will destroy the nation. Ethanol subsidies will not.
Ethanol is crap, but it’s not a deal breaker. If Hillary, or one of the RINOs get in, we’ll all be riding bicycles.
The ethanol subsidy can be handled later.
If the very survival of the country depended on the subsidy issue, I’d be a Cruz supporter.
Yawn. Does anyone know what time the Trump rally is today?
When Ethanol first came out, I thought it was stupid. They put 10% ethanol in the gas and we got 10% less gas mileage...no savings of gas at all.
But then I upgraded cars and this one does a better job of making use of the ethanol.
So maybe it saves gas. And “if” oil is a finite resource and ethanol is renewable. Then maybe it makes sense to use ethanol to stretch the oil supply.
And if it helps defund terrorist states that produce oil, so much the better.
Some have claimed there are better more efficient sources of ethanol than corn. And that should be looked at.
Some have claimed that too much gas is used in the production of ethanol, but I recently read that 0.05 gallons of gas are used per gallon of ethanol produced.
I still think we should build nuclear plants like crazy. And we should invest in physics research and alternative fuel research. But we shouldn’t fund mass production until research shows it’s reasonably viable. We should never be dependent on foreign countries for energy.
I don’t really care who your candidate is, or how bad you might think the other candidates are compared to yours, but all this nit picking on here is not helping any of us to vet these candidates...
Was it done with obuma? I don’t know, I stayed off this site pretty much because of the McCain mess and especially after what they did with Palin...
Most of us lived thru the Clinton years, I have a lot of information on them, him and her...a lot has been scrubbed...
We need to come together right now and look at each candidate as a President...how is he/she going to get the respect of the House, Senate, how much corruption is there in those ‘hallowed halls’ of Congress? Are these people we elect to make our rules and laws, that we send there to protect Americans, are they being ‘bought’ off or being ‘blackmailed’ by super pacs; lobbyists; media; other countries perhaps....we need to know these things...
Yes I’m a Trump supporter, and sometimes I get angry at the things I read, but if there is any little piece that I question, I research...and as far as I know, that man has been vetted a lot more than most...I wonder when they are going to tell us how many spoons he eats his soup with...
If you vet your candidate, and go back, I use duckduckgo because you can get better information there and it doesn’t track you...vet him/her and read, no you probably won’t like some of what you read, I didn’t at first on some of the candidates, thought better of them...but open up and really look and then instead of throwing out insults, and I’m guilty of that also, throw out information...facts...you’ll feel better and your candidate will look better in other peoples eyes...
Levin and Rush are conservative.
Nobody should except a conservative not to cover this.
