paging AlGore...The subsidy and mandate need to be ended.
We need to end our current farm policy of over production.
We still need to encourage added-value ag, just not subsidized and mandated.
There IS good news tonight!!
Small step by small step we will take back our country.
There’s a communist in Iowa with a last name rhyming with “barkin” who will detonate himself if this happens.
About figgin time!
Subsidies so we get a fuel which delivers less MPG.
Only liberlas could deliver such a braindead scheme.
I’m going to keep banging my drum on this issue.
If you don’t like subsidies for corn ethanol, you are going to HATE the subsidies required for ethanol from cellulosic sources (like switchgrass). The cellulosic sources of ethanol are going to be a huge burden on the federal budget. It is a byproduct of the global warming agenda through carbon sequestration. If we hold congress accountable for this wasting agenda they are going to shove this down our throats.
Can someone explain what is really going on behind the scenes? After decades of politicians bowing down to every wish of the corn industry:
(1) Al Gore comes out and says corn ethanol was a mistake.
(2) Then just days later, congress moves to cut corn ethanol subsidies.
SOMETHING happened to cause this sudden change. It didn’t just happen overnight without someone behind the scenes orchastrating it.
Whatever- This is simply in the publics mind because of the media talk, the pumps with the E85, the mandated use/mix of ethanol in non-E85 fuels...........
Reality is the government as dozens of subsidy programs it's essentially wasting money on to chase some “green” agenda that sounded good.
Green subsidies amount to scams where often lobbyists and big business are actually using the eco agenda to get some free money. Of course anything "green" cannot be criticized or questioned and is viewed as the automatic moral high ground and underdog even if in reality it's big business that's largely pushing this......i.e. CFL.
Move Iowa caucus back 60 days and no more asking the rest of us to bend over for them.
CA requires it, so all that means is prices go even higher for the junk.
You need 51. But it's a start.
Dont we also need to end the over production of house’s brought on by the Home mtg int. deduction........
there are way too many houses, they take way too much wood to produce, they can be bought by the rich and middle class without govt subsidies.......
and with the number of people taking the deduction vrs a blenders credit for ethanol........it would bring in a heck of alot more back to the Fed. Treas. for the Left to spend.
and besides gas wont go up approx 54% by removing 10% of the fuel supply if the Home Mtg. Int. deduction is removed.
sounds like they got a look at Intel estimates on Global Food Prices over the next couple of years and it made their blood run cold.
Ethanol manufacturers were going bankrupt with the subsidies.
Anyone need a job producing ethanol? There’s a company near Madison, WI recruiting. BTW, the plant in question went belly up not to long ago. Someone knows something that we don’t.
Win win!!
About time, now if they would end all farm subsidies, that would be great.
paging AlGore...How will this affect people who plug their cars into the lampshade?
