Ethanol is very bad not only for the ‘sacred environment,’ but takes more energy to produce than it generates, and raises fuel consumption 10-20 percent while raising the price it costs to blend (and the price you pay at the pump), all the while tearing your engine apart.

Saving ‘grace’: farmers get more money for ethanol corn than for food corn. That’s it.
