I’d have explained it differently.
Corn is FOOD, not fuel!
The Federal government has no business subsidizing Corn to make it a fuel.
Corn as a fuel:
-screws up engines,
-reduces gas mileage,
-costs more to turn into fuel than petroleum,
-passes that cost on to consumers,
-does NOTHING to control pollution because with the reduced mileage the
“pollutants per mile” don’t improve!
Dems are smart.
They paired enviros with the ag lobby.
Tough to beat.
This worked so well with food stamps they ran the same play again.
