Agree, and I am not a big fan of Ethanol (E15) gas as I know what it does to older engines and obviously newer ones as well

To me it is madness, and Farmers need to stop growing “fuel” and change to a new crop, like Hemp which is a burgeoning market with many tangents. Note to SJW’s who may read this post, no THC in this product so you could smoke a truckload and get nothing more than a headache. The CBD oil is another valuable by product and is very useful in medicine and it is natural, not made by Pharma

I have an older Husqvarna chainsaw. I used to mix my own gas until a couple years ago. I was having issues with it quitting when it got hot. On the advice of a friend I started using ethanol free gas in it. No more issues. I’ve since bought a newer model Husqy but I’ve kept the old one for dirty wood. Now it looks like I’ll have to get the stuff for my riding mower too. Everything else like my trimmer and wood splitter I moved to electric in one form or another. Glad I did.

Info only:

Corn grown for human/animal consumption must be grown in an almost sterile field - no weeds, regulations galore to be able to be food. Very expensive to grow.

Corn for fuel much fewer regulations = cheap to grow (relative to food corn) and the Gas producers must purchase an amount equal to a certain percentage of gasoline produced. The corn is used in the gasoline at the discretion of the producer but by law the % MUST BE PURCHASED!

Cheaply grown corn with a guaranteed market for those growing it and it cant be used for consumption for man or beast. Only in a Democrat world! But wait, bipartisan support in congress. ......

Now you know why beef prices have doubled last 3-5 years. Cant afford cornfeed to bulk up the cattle cheaply so fewer are raised. .....

We MUST go door to door and get out the vote to give POTUS a house and senate that can deliver the legislative goods!

WINNING BIGLY! But there is still work to do! MAGA! WWG1WGA!
