Ethanol made from corn and the need of farmers to feed their livestock is also putting pressure on the market.

Ethanol has to be one of the best examples of governmental stupidity and corruption that created supply distortions and gave rise to an economic disaster. Too bad none of our schools will ever use this as a case study.


Ever heard of a DDG? Probably not. If you did you would realize that the ethanol idea isn’t as bad as it is portrayed. Also, Mr. Bernanke has 10 times the responsibility for rising food prices than does the ethanol industry.

“Ever heard of a DDG? Probably not.”

As a Navy vet, I assume you’re referring to a guided missile destroyer. Are you probably wrong?
