“The issue is national security. A self sufficient USA needs X gallons of liquid fuel per year produced within our borders by us. Until we have that we are vulnerable to the hatred of nations that have us over a “barrelâ€.
There is no problem with ethanol that cannot be solved and most already are.”
that is ridiculous. If you were really interested in national security, then you should be lobbying against the demonization of coal and nuclear. Those are far, far better than ethanol, and a lot, lot cheaper for energy security, and are plentiful for us in this country.
Ethanol jus rewards bad business practices in a non-commercial enterprise.
I do argue for coal and nuke. ALL forms combine to make a total amount of liquid fuel needed.
AND it is the best octane booster.
AND electric cars still suck
