hardcore trumpees are blind.


Is Ethanol the hill you want to die on? I rather give my money to Iowan farmers than Saudi Sheiks.

I’d rather give *my* money to American and Canadian oilmen in the free market, rather than to Iowa big agriculture at the point of an EPA gun. Because conservatism. :-)

Yes, but most of us would rather keep our money and decide for ourselves who should get it. But go ahead and rationalize. He’s your dude.

And I'd rather give my money to Iowa farmers as well, but with ethanol mandates we're giving it to corporate megafarms, oil companies, and bureaucrats.
It ain't like you were buying corn from Farmer Brown to feed the kiddies - it's going into your gas tank despite a (cheap) oil glut.

Then put a tariff on Saudi Oil. Instead you want to put a tariff on the American people to fund gasoline additives that destroy your engine and put North Dakota and Alaskan roughnecks out of work.

What will it take to make you realize that Donald Trump is a Crony Capitalist con man?

Pandering don’t get much more blatant than that. The GOPe probably just blew a big sigh of relief that Trump won’t rock their “Big Corn” boat.

Meanwhile, the rest of us are still wondering why we are turning food into fuel while paying sky-high prices for beef. If I was a multi-billionaire, it might not bother me so much...

How about ditching the EPA and spending it on American Oil? We produce more than the Saudis. Of all the countries we import from we import the most from Canada.
