Some ethanol makes sense, even though it is a loser to plant, grow, and refine ethanol. It does act as an antiknock compound in small quantities. Much better on the ground water than MTBE.

Bluntly, I don't believe that, especially if you use sugar instead of corn.

I am related to some people who did hard time for moonshining. They could make 20 gallons of that stuff in a couple of days with supplies they could move in a pick-up truck (and not a very good one either, considering we're talking about the 1930s) and a homemade whisky still. If American industry has degraded to the point we can't even make moonshine anymore, then we really are in bad shape.
