The entire concept of burning food for fuel is wrong.
In all the Pro ethanol states, the ones that grow corn, you can buy straight gasoline for your lawn equipment.
Not in good ole Texas. I guess they figure everyone needs a new weed eater every two years.

Obviously, King Barrack will have to make it rain. No doubt he’ll announce that tomorrow night in the SOTUA.

"ethanol is and was and always will be a stupid idea"If Iowa didn't have that stupid early Presidential caucus we wouldnt have to put up with this #$%&*!! For all his other shortcomings, at least McCain didn't kiss up to the corn farmers

"Corn shortage idles 20 ethanol plants nationwide... ... Which by the same token actually caused the corn shortage which is idling those same 20 ethanol plants. It's called an unintended consequence, a vicious cycle created by radical environmentalists.

You can get it in Texas, just not in the counties the EPA has banned it in (i.e., the cities and anywhere near a city).

Idle them permanently. Corn is food, not fuel.

Would ethanol production be economically viable with out direct federal government involvement, i.e., forcing it upon consumers at bayonet point?
