“Do you have any idea how many Iowa jobs are on the line? I don’t agree with the subsidy,”
Do you know how many TEXAS Oil Jobs are on the Line? - GIVE ME THE $$$
You people are marooons. G’ment subsidies distort the markes
I see you do what I do. Get excited while typing and have my spelling and grammar go a little sideways...
The more screwed up my spelling and grammar are the more excited I am...
So I'll put aside my belief system and ignore all that history......he can get the Independent vote!
The Conservative movement is no longer a movement. It's been corrupted by the 'win at any cost' crowd.
You people are “maroons”. Distort The “markes”
Plenty of folks got jobs fracking for oil. I know a number of folks who just moved to where the oil jobs were to get the money. That is how America was developed as we moved west and to other areas in search of a better life. You need to get a basic education to include spelling. At present Texas has the best economy in the nation. I lived in Nebraska when the Army sent me to college for two years. Those Nebraska and Iowa folks have corn. Nebraska is big in cattle also with insurance companies like United and Mutual of Omaha plus Physicians. Omaha also had the Union Pacific HQ. Iowa is big in hog farming as I knew a man who sold those confinement buildings with auto feeders all over the western half of the state. Iowa is a bit more diversified to the east, but; their econ is not as good as Texas. All handout programs should end as this nation used to be 100% capitalism except for the damn FED and Washington DC bankers as Andrew Jackson had run ins with the bankers.
My average well on the ranch produces 30 barrels of oil per day and 60 MCF NG, all from an area less than an acre in size.
From the oil they’ll get about 20 gallons of gas and about 9 gallons of diesel per barrel. Or 219,000 gallons of gas and 98,550 gallons of diesel per year. This also includes 21,900 MCF Natural gas.
A bushel of corn produces 2.8 gallons of ethanol and has an average of 142 bushels per acre giving you 397 gallons per acre per year. It would take 799 acres of corn to produce as much liquid fuel as that single well in a year and we still haven’t mentioned the NG.
Why would we even remotely consider corn as fuel source? What level of insanity decided to make it a mandatory source?
In my opinion it has nothing to do with protecting a food source or jobs but it does do a hell of a good job in buying and securing votes, kind of like the CRP program. If I can get you to take my money I have your vote for life! People are so easily bought.
