for the people of the US.

for people who around the world who earn 2 dollars a day,
fuel ethanol in the US is not a good deal.

There is no doubt that ethanol is good economically for some people in the US. It's called crony capitalism. Subsidies distort free markets.

for people who around the world who earn 2 dollars a day, fuel ethanol in the US is not a good deal.

Hungry people tend to be problematic, e.g. the Arab Spring in Egypt.

who should I have concern for?

I usually go with family and friends first, then my country.

.
That may be your opinion, but the evidence is shouting the opposite.

We have little use for ethanol, outside of getting soused at happy hour.
