A JD dealer is looking to build out on the open here, a new building.
They are kinda shopping between 3 communities, seeing which town gives them the best tax breaks and other incentives, utilities and so forth.
Just kinda the way of things these days, I don't care for it any more than you, but it is the game we are in.
Most governments have found if we think we have cheap food and cheap energy we are happy quiet sheep, so that is the route we go. The game is bigger than any of us.
All the oil refineries, all the oil pipelines, all their infrastructure got the same tax breaks and incentives back when so they could start out cheap as well.
Now no other energy industry can possibly start out and compete, as they have to meet EPA rules that old technologies are grandfathered into.
And so on.
Its a game JD, you play it when it helps you, and you cuss it when it helps your competitors. But your oil companies and your machinery manufacturers all played the very same game, and still do.
Ethanol gets a few crumbs, they play the same game, same rules, same deal.
If you want to discuss the game, I agree with you, it is just a crying shame and will fold like a house of cards some day. Certainly rotten business.
If you want to talk energy production, then we need a level playing field, whatever you do for big oil, windmills, hydro electric dams, you do for the other energy producers as well.
If ethanol is supposed to compete with all the EPA regs and zero govt help, then lets have all the other energy segments pay back the tax breaks and subsidies they got in the last century. So we can compare them fairly, as you want if not, then you don't have an argument.
Which discussion do you want, one or the other? Can't have both sides of them your way.....
