America is not responsible for the food supply of the whole dam world. These people must be responsible for their own food supply. We should make our ethanol decision based on our own economics(which by itself would mean we stop producing ethanol), not the third world food supply.

The ethanol mandates have failed miserably.  Wait till it reaches 36 billion gallon required by 2022.  We are now committed to 9 billion gallons for 2008.  It won't be long until consumers begin to put 2 and 2 together.  If you think we shouldn't care about global food prices, and let the rest of the world be damn, just wait till these people come knocking on our doorsteps and tell me how you feel then.

H3ll with them. THey should be making their own food anyway. Maybe this will pressure them enough to overthrow their pathetic governments and build a real country of their own.
