I don't know Leland, The half dozen ethanol plants in my state get NO government subsidy, never have. The only govennment subsidy is a 50 cent per gallon blenders tax credit given to the oil companys as an incentive to add the necessary equipment to blend ethanol with thier gasoline. That amounts to 5 cents per gallon of E10 given to the oil campany.
Yes, the price of feed corn has almost tripled, but the price our ethanol plants recieve for ethanol has gone up only a fraction of that amount, no where near the 300% you claim.
As to your statement that gas would be 50 cents per gallon cheaper without ethanol, my state ND has no ethanol mandate. Our 87 octane regular has NO ethanol in it, yet it is priced exactly the same as E10. Why is our ethanol free 87 octane regular not 50 cents per gallon cheaper if what you say is true ??
