I’m opposed to the mandate, and always have been.

As to the nonsense you and others spout about ethanol destroying engines, nearly every gasoline engine used in the United States today runs on gasoline containing ethanol.

It may destroy the gaskets and seals in some older engines, but only a fool would use rebuild kits which aren’t resistant to the effects of ethanol.

Need I say more? I probably do, but let me know before I bore everyone else.

>> As to the nonsense bla bla bla

ROFL!

The weasel words in your own statement give the truth away.

“NEARLY every gasoline engine... MAY destroy gaskets and seals in SOME older engines... REBUILD with ethanol proof gaskets...”

So to appease the farm lobby, we should stop our whining, throw away (or REBUILD! ROFL!) sixty to seventy percent of all automobiles, lawnmowers, motorcycles, chainsaws, etc. etc.) — and for what reason? TO KEEP THE FARMERS FAT AND HAPPY!

What a bunch of transparent. self serving bullshit!

Wouldn’t it be simpler to just stop forcing ethanol on everyone, burn straight gasoline, and not worry about it?

If not... WHY NOT?
