Stop it. You keep introducing this nonsense, people keep correcting you, and you try it again in the VAIN hope that nobody will notice that you're spinning the same nonsense.

Let me see. You advocate lies and tell me to stop disagreeing with them. If ethanol were a net energy producer (and it's not) you could run the whole process on ethanol with some left over. You can't, so stop lying and go suck a government subsidy.

He is quite correct. Ethanol as a fuel only works because of subsidy: agricultural lobbyists notwithstanding.

It's am oldie, but I can't post the WSJ article because it requires subscription. At any rate, if ethanol was the answer to our energy woes, then WHY DOES THE GOVERNMENT IMPOSE A TARRIF ON IMPORTED ETHANOL? (Hint: Think ADM and the food pyramid, 9-11 servings of grain, yeah, right).
