In Reply to: End of ethanol.... posted by muckfarmer on March 06, 2011 at 02:47:08:
I am suprised it hasnt already ended! When gas prices go up; the subsidy is less important to make it competitive as opposed to regular oil based fuel. If oil goes to $200 a barrel ethanol will be a bargain I would bet, & with goverment debt they really need to end all subsidies except for maybe the smallest 5, or 10% of farmers. Lets face it; 5000 acre farms were never originally meant to be given goverment handouts, & its really criminal to keep it going. Tyson foods the offender of hiring illegals (who pay no income tax) received about a 1/2 million $"s in subsidies just a few years ago, & still had profits in the 100"s of millions! Why did they need a single dollar? Subsidies not suprisingly have been a carrot for congress, & some presidents, & this country needs weined from it badly! & I mean all areas of subsidies, not just agriculture!
Then You have the USDA which sends subsidy payments to people living in housing divisions, & when they send the checks back saying they dont farm are told to keep it anyway; What a travisty that is by itself!!! Its just another goverment mess that needs to almost, or totally end!

But, on the other hand, there is a secret language that our mechanical companions readily do speak. It is an interesting form of communication that involves all the senses of the listener. In this series we are going to investigate and learn the basic rudimentary skills of understanding this lingo.
