govt awards winners and punishes losers....you play their game, give them donations, you are a winner......

crony capitalism....

never expect any govt policy to be for the good of the people....all their policies are directed at enriching their friends...

Ethanol decreases mileage 12%. That is a NASCAR number when they were forced to use it.

Last summer, the large car I drive magically got 2 to 4 mpg better and ran like stink... My pet theory? The fuel provider must have sent out a load without Ethanol in it.

Lately I am luck to see 18 mpg and my lawnmower runs like crap.

I am going to try to snag some marine or av-gas for the lawn-mower, it barely wants to start.

I am so sick of this insanity and no one in Washington will stand up to the Ethanol-Corn Lobby and tell them to shove it, and that their whole existance and pardigm is a canard.
