Let me see if I understand this. If I want to be ecologically conscious and support American farmers, I should be running ethanol in my car. In order to get the ethanol produced cost effectively, it needs to come from a brewery. In order to assist the brewery in their efforts, I need to drink more beer. If I drink more beer, then I shouldn't be driving. If I don't drive due to my drunkeness, they won't make as much ethanol, and it then ceases to be cost effective. Here's a thought - If the brewery can figure out how to run the car on beer, then maybe the price of my beer will go down due to increased sales. No, wait. If people start driving more in their beer powered cars, then we'll see the price of beer spike during the holiday weekends, right? I think I'll pop open a Corona and think about this some more.
