I’d rather it be used for something, anything HERE than putting it on a barge and sending it to China, for a great deal less profit.

Nothing’s wasted in ethanol anyway, the byproducts are used for animal AND human feed.

“Nothing’s wasted in ethanol anyway”

40% of our corn crop. Wasted.

$8 billion a year. Wasted.

Additional wear and tear on engines. Wasted.

If ethanol made sense it wouldn’t need government subsidies.

Useful products do not require government subsidies.
