You know we have had 10% ethanol since the 1980s here in Missouri,at least since then,maybe the 1970s I dont remember.That means it worked in carburetor cars all the way to modern smog control smothered fuel injected turbo engines and what problems there were with it have been mostly fixed.Thats in everything that runs on gas.If you watch tractor pulls or drag races there are straight alcohol motors that put out lots of horsepower and have been since way back probably the 40s and 50s.
We did at one time have so much corn we gave it away before.I think they even dumped some in the ocean because it got old before it was used and they needed to make room for the new crop.Who gives a d@mn if they can make alcohol out of something that was being wasted anyway?The secret is nobody wanted you to know it was being wasted.Now its more valuable since ethanol is being made out of it.It still wont save farming.Now think about that.Farming as we always knew it is dead.Its not coming back either.You will be starving if something doesnt save it.Food does not,nor did it ever come from a store.It came from lots of hard work by families who are beat to death in some cases.By getting on here bad mouthing their way of life even more you are causing the end to come sooner.When big corporations get control of all the land and water your ability to buy food will start to get lots harder.Actually food is a very,very fragile system and even the ability of big companies to produce it is threatened by the stupidity of the way the markets are run by educated idiots and greedy politicians that have no idea of the damage they are causing.If its not profitable corporations will quit doing it here,then you will pay lots more for some other country to produce enough to feed you.You wont eat much meat,you wont eat much of anything except what you can get.Where do you think food comes from?We grow lots here now,but its harder all the time and Im not going to waste my time explaining it any better.By following along with the idiot reasons for not making ethanol you would cut people out of jobs,lower the value of a cash crop,and make your own life worse.Thats the truth,now Im sure the spinning will begin about how you all were taught in some communist school that beating farmers to death is good for the economy.Sometimes even if you are right,you are still wrong.
