Ethanol produces significant negative impacts on the environment, in some cases worse than the gasoline its supposed to be replacing. It enables gasoline to mix with water.
Next question.

I am currently exercising my 21st amendment rights by using ethanol the way god intended me to.

So these same “farmers” object to subsidies .... ethanol is nothing but a government ordered subsidy that rapes the farmland for the benefit of big farm corps.

MTBE was very detrimental to the environment but California insisted on it. They will do the same with ethanol.

Ethanol needs to be outlawed. It kills gas mileage. Kills engines. It's bad for the environment. It increases the cost of corn-fed livestock and food that uses corn.
The only reason we have it is for congress critters to buy corn farmer votes. It's welfare for corn farmers.

A long-delayed report from the Environmental Protection Agency finds that requiring ethanol made from corn and soybeans to be part of the nations gas supply is causing serious environmental harm. Sounds like another example of "Todays solution is tomorrow's problem". - Tom

And on top of that, it takes more energy to produce a unit of ethanol than the energy we get from it

The US has no need, of any kind, for ethanol fuel.
It has always been a bad deal economically, and environmentally. The ethanol mandate should be entirely eliminated.
Ethanol beverages are an entirely different matter.

I have known this from known, public science studies for at least 15 years if not longer. Groundwater is polluted worse from ethanol gas than just pure gas.

the only good ethanol as gas additive is for the corn holes that profit from it.

Ethanol would quickly end if all farm equipment were mandated to use only E85 ethanol or biodiesel. Farmers love the corn subsidy, but won’t use that crap in their farm machinery.
