But let’s keep using corn as fuel! That makes sense... not.

I’ll believe Republicans are serious about cutting government spending when they abolish farm subsidies. As John Wayne used to say, “That’ll be the day.”

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.

Great ideas like that qualify you to be president of the United States.

Corn as fuel or corn as dog food...... which should we curtail?

Fuel of course. We can’t starve granny by limiting dog food sales

“But let’s keep using corn as fuel! That makes sense... not.”

This ethanol BS is always my first thought. It just defies logic to do this, regardless of the price of corn.

Does everything in Washington revolve around how effective/strong the lobbying effort is? What’s in the best interest of the country takes a distant second place.

And they wonder why the rev0lut!on is coming...
