H.R.750 - Defending America’s Affordable Energy and Jobs Act

To preempt regulation of, action relating to, or consideration of greenhouse gases under Federal and common law on enactment of a Federal policy to mitigate climate change.

It effectively strips the EPA of regulatory power. Call your congressman today and encourage him to join the other 103 co sponsors.

The United States of America is importing corn.

How pathetic is that?

We have, after four years of Obama, become a Third World Hell-hole that can no longer feed our own people.

Ethanol is a total scam. It costs a lot to produce. It uses lots of water to produce. If leads to more farm subsidies. It increases the price of feed and food. It provides fewer miles-per-gallon. It is bad for small engines (lawn mowers, weed whips, etc.). Just get rid of it period.

I may be wrong about this, but I don’t think it would really matter in the short term if the EPA lifted the ethanol mandate. Refineries are already configured to produce gasoline based on the currently proscribed blend, and the entire industry has been set up to do this until the winter fuel grades are in place in early November.

E-15 Ethanol Fuels are ready to ‘rock-n-roll’ (spit)

This should be fun to watch - I’d grab some popcorn but it’s getting too expensive to eat :)

"It's universally acknowledged that ethanol is raising the price of food," Kenneth Green of the American Enterprise Institute said. "It's not lowering the price of gas. In fact, it may be raising the price of gas, and it's having a devastating environmental effect in terms of coastal pollution.

Sounds like a very successful government program. Maybe we should triple its funding.

The Democrat EPA of today wouldn’t dare give up the Ethanol regulations for fear it would be noticed there would be no change in atmospheric pollution, thus no reinstatement of the law upon arrival of better times, thus one less major contributing entity to the Democrat coffers.

The useless eaters at EPA will do nothing!

#1 because they don’t give a hoot about real world situations and problems
#2 because it is an election year and the effin Kenyan will not jeopardize any farm state votes

Romney gets in he should fire every last EPA tax sucking parasite, bulldoze their buildings and salt the soil. I can dream can’t I?

Question about corn?

Is the corn variety grown to make ethanol the same as that used for any other use; animal feed, cornflakes, corn oil, and corn on the cob?
