Is this country so turned upside down now that Feinstein is actually doing something that makes sense? Is this bizarro day?

Wow! This would be one of the most productive things Congress has done in Decades!

It would make sense if there were no government price supports for program commodities. The market price of corm has been higher than the support levels for the past few year; if the price decreases, the taxpayer will again be stuck for the deficiency payments.
What the Senator is essentially doing is shifting the subsidy from the bio-fuel industry to the feedlot industry.

Hard to reconcile, but Feinstein is not stupid like Pelosi, even though Feinstein is dumb enough to stay in the Senate as a Democrat.
BTW, to produce one barrel of Ethanol requires the consumption of more than one barrel of refined fossil fuel, usually Diesel.

I strongly support requiring a shift to low-carbon advanced biofuel, including biodiesel, cellulosic ethanol and other revolutionary fuels.
Hmm.. I worked in ethanol, and it has a place. But I wonder why she is saying this? Biodiesel is ok, but CE is a hard sell.

Wow. Feinstein is actually doing something that is sensible, rather than “sensible in comparison to Boxer or Pelosi”.

I'm very pleased to see this, but...
Feinstein said the bill supports development of advanced biofuels, including those from made from soybean oil, grasses and trees.
Any substance which is subsidized by the government will become a cash crop to the detriment of the unsubsidized. It might seem harmless to subsidize fuel made from grass, but that would likely lead to farmers replacing corn with grass.
No biofuel subsidies at all, please.

Hurray! Excessive growing of corn is driving us into another Dust Bowl, not to mention the fact that corn destroys motors. Get ride of ethanol and grow corn to feed people.

I’m getting old and not quite as sharp as I used to be. And I never was that sharp to begin with. But isn’t all legislation supposed to start in the house?
