The subsidy has ended, but not the mandate.

That is the heart of the problem.

More half-a**ed action from congress.

As long as the mandate to force the use of ethanol in gasoline exists there will be no relief at the pump.

Just listen to the local news and as of Jan. 1 the NC State tax on gasoline will go up $.04 per gallon with an additional $.04 a gallon because of the end of the subsidy.
Happy New Year to NC from our Republician leaders.
