A much better use of the corn is to feed livestock, because ethanol does not save gas mileage....in fact it has been proven to damage engines. OR GIVE IT BACK TO MOONSHINERS! I don’t want it in my vehicle!

Then don’t use it. You know darn well engine longevity is 3 times longer now. Show me the evidence. 300-400k is not uncommon.

Have you ever seen herds of starving cattle in the Midwest? Or livestock chowing down on soybeans? A little education about agribusiness wouldn’t hurt, ya know?

Here’s a place to start - compare corn production cost vs yield times price per bushel, and how much of a box of corn flakes goes to the farmer.
