Very true. Another good side effect is that maybe they will start putting sugar back in sodas instead of HFCS (corn syrup).

Any author who cites food shortages in the turd world because we are converting grain to ethanol is probably also against big oil.
The author’s mention of Bush and Cheny and Haliburton and Monsanto as somehow conspiring to not only raise energy prices but food prices is a socialists way of saying that sharecroppers should be sharing their food rather than hoarding it for profit. American grain production has nothing to do with the capabilities of India or commie China feeding their masses. We are not obligated to feed those people although the globalist United Nothing view is that we should feed the world for free because we are a rich nation.

And any study from Berkley has to be suspect.

This whole article is a crock. We produce grain and we do whatever we want with it. The rest of the world will have to get over the fact that is is not our obligation to feed every starving pissant, regardless of what they think.

Yes, I agree. Corn in some form is in almost every thing we eat, read the labels and see for yourself. Cornstarch, corn flour, corn meal and high fructose corn syrup, and speaking as someone who is allergic to corn, this is good news. Put it ALL into ethanol and I’ll be happy.
