The ethanol project seems to be a huge mega-wasteful systemic boondoggle. Cui bono? My gut feeling is that it’s meant to benefit huge agribiz entities like Montsanto and Archer Daniels Midland. (Just mentioning the big names I happen to know off the top of my head. I don’t have the evidence at hand.)
There is absolutely no reason to turn food into fuel when fuel supplies are plentiful.
very sad commentary on our societies.
"Jon Phillips and Sarah Berry Starve Child to Death: Seven-Year-Old ..."
So not only do we have another Denver-area child abuse story about someone starving a little kid to death, but this time it’s by people who went through a ...
Quick question. Do know the difference between starvation vs murder? It doesn't appear so.
Do (you)know the difference...
Yes, those were the folks who made Zyclon B, and used it based on superior intellect.
And that was his “proof” that there are starving people in America due to a “shortage” of food.
Sad case indeed.
"We share the planet with 5.7 billion people. If one could stand all the people in the world, men, women and children two feet apart, how much of the world would they take up? All of Africa? All of North America? New York state? If every person alive today stood two feet apart they would fill less than the area of Dallas County! And there would still be room for all the buildings! If the world's people were put together into families of four living on 50' by 100' lots, they could all live in the state of Texas, with more than seven thousand square miles left over"
Marking my place. It’s time for a piece of apple pie.
Now, now, don’t let FACTS start getting in the way of the left’s agenda!
whoa....EXCELLENT response!!!
Yes, but even for me, I was astonished at it.
You’re right, it’s staggering how little of the earth’s resources we actually use.
It appears that the end game is that they worry about whether they will get enough to eat for themselves.
and so it is with the religion of human secularism.
The following demostration illustrates why we don’t need more souls on earth and lays the foundation for population control.

IF you don’t understand the gumball logic you are a perfect canidate for this study.
I have always been fascinated with thte study of Stupidity. I have studied stupidity; those who base conclusions and make policy based upon emotion, rather than facts.
Here are the Five Laws of Stupidity according to Carlo Cipolla: Do they fit your proposal?
First Law
We always underestimate the number of stupid people.
Second Law
The probability of a person being stupid is independent of any other characteristic of that person.
Third (and Golden) Law
A stupid person is someone who causes damage to another person, or a group of people, without any advantage accruing to himself (or herself) — or even with some resultant self-damage.
Fourth Law
Non-stupid people always underestimate the damaging power of stupid people.
Fifth Law
A stupid person is the most dangerous person in existence.
This is probably the most widely understood of the Laws, if only because it is common knowledge that intelligent people, hostile as they might be, are predictable, while stupid people are not. Moreover, its basic corollary:

Anyone in his group who can put forth a logical arguement why more populaaiton growth in USA or world be is desirable come forth. Until then you are out of time. Any why you should never hold any position of leadership.
