All of them are stupid when it comes to ethanol and propping up an industry that cant survive and thrive on its own.

Welfare for farmers is what it boils down to.

There are plenty of other better crops to grow, perhaps some organic non-gmo corn humans can eat. Corn for ethanol is not used in food for people.

Yep.

Increases in ethanol supply have outpaced increases in domestic demand for the last few years.

“Government’s view of the economy could be summed up in a few short phrases: If it moves, tax it. If it keeps moving, regulate it. And if it stops moving, subsidize it.”
