Already happening on a previous thread about this. One FReeper suggested they’re a good thing because it creates jobs. I guess Solendra just needed to receive more subsidies.

"It creates jobs"!

That's precious.

At the DOE and EPA, maybe.

Don’t forget about more BIG government in Trump’s willingness to expand more government welfare in a new program to help collage students pay off their collage loans in which Rand Paul had the very same idea early this year.

I was responding to someone who was reporting that the oil industry creates jobs, trying to point out that that is not a good argument, since ethanol does the same thing for Iowa that oil does for Texas.

No, they are just irrelevant. Not one American in a thousand concerns himself with ethanol subsidies when Muslim radicals are gunning down people in our streets.

And, rightly or wrongly, Trump is perceived as being the strongest to deal with the issues that count. I've lived with ethanol subsidies for 20 years or more and it hasn't affected my life, that I can tell, one iota. Yah, I'm agin' em on principle, but right now the nation is in danger of being overrun and destroyed, and as good a guy as Ted is, he simply isn't up to the task of turning this around.
