Isn't it possible to think ethanol is a bad idea without hating farmers? I grew up on a farm and farmed on the side for many years myself. Most of my best friends are farmers. I was raised to love the environment and you are entitled to your opinion but I think that overall ethanol does more harm to the environment than good. I very much appreciate that farmers feed the world but ethanol uses food to make gasoline. This makes it harder for farmers to feed the world and makes it harder for poor people to buy food. As far as being on this site, my son has always wanted to farm and I have always wanted him to experience all the good things that come from growing up on a farm. Neither of us can ever dream of being able to afford to get into farming but what we can do is collect a few tractors. He goes to local shows and even an occasional rookie tractor pull. I love seeing him on a tractor. Again, use all the ethanol you want but don't make it a government mandate. After all of these years it should be able to stand on its own.
