If not for ethanol you would be paying much more to drive. The oil companies would have a heyday with gas prices if not for the competition of ethanol.
Because of Government regulations there has not been a new refinery built for years. The refineries could slow production to cause an increase in price. Which they have done in the past. With ethanol in the mix it keeps them moving as we could all go to e85 if need be to keep driving.
One other point to keep ethanol around. If not for ethanol our oil shortages would come much sooner.
Some day our oil supplies will be depleted. Until then we better find alternative power sources to move the people of the world.
Right now ethanol is the best alternative.
Electric cars may be an alternative but the energy to power them is in trouble as well. Government won't allow hydro electric dams to be built. Some fish may not get up stream. They won't allow nuclear plants to be built. And don't want electric plants to burn coal.
We better wake up some day and figure out someway to produce some form of energy.
Until then I will burn ethanol as I have been since 1973. With no ethanol related problems, except one small weed eater engine that the ethanol shrank the fuel lines in 25 years ago.

But alas, my carb foiled me again, it would fire a second then flood out. After numerous dead ends for a replacement carb, I went to work fixing mine.I soldered new floats on the float arm, they came from an old motorcycle carb, replaced the packing on the throttle shaft with o-rings, cut new ga
