I see an opportunity to kill the Ethanol subsidy.

The subsidy ended nearly a year ago, 12-31-2011.

Facts; you and your stinkin' facts.

The government should force farmers to produce agricultural commodities at below the cost of production. Apparently, it's the American way.

The subsidy may have ended, but the mandate forcing fuel suppliers to use it has not. In fact, EPA types are trying to introduce E-15 in odrer to meet those mandates.

They still mandate the addition of ethanol to gasoline. That is still a subsidy. Mandating a market where none would otherwise exist is a subsidy.
