Ethanol was used to increase thier stockpile, waterdown the gas, charge the same price, and reap the rewards. Much like solyndra and the solar scam today which is in your face and right out in front for all to see. This has nothing to do with your health or the enviroment just another “look how we are taking care of the American people” moment while thier turning your pockets inside out.
Met a farmer last year....Said all he grows NOW is one crop....corn for the ethanol plant. At the same time, he plays the market and with the subsidies, he can retire in two years instead of 15.
