One of our cars cannot burn the gas with the higher ethanol mix. It will damage the engine. So we have to be sure of the mix before we pump gas.

Using food for fuel has always seemed counterproductive to me.

We produce so much food that if we didn’t find uses for it other than eating it, agricultural commodity prices would collapse and producing food would no longer be a profitable endeavor. It raises the price of food and gasoline but the trade off is a stable and abundant food supply and happy prosperous farmers.

I know it’s stupid besides ethanol has been subsidized long
enough. If it cant stand on it’s own by now then it’s just
another dumb idea.
