We have food riots going on around the world. We have this nutty idea to burn our food as fuel here in the good 'ole USA! Great. Or insane? I think and have thought that ethanol is such a horrible idea and no good at stopping the imagined problem of global warming. We take a food crop, subsidize it, call it the answer and then starve the world because our food acreage is going to grow subsidized corn. We have imported wheat for the first time ever! We now have to tap into foreign food that would be headed for third world countries because we have 10% ethanol in our gas. What the crap are we thinking? Do you think that the world hates us now, wait until we are starving the rest of the planet to drive our suvs and cars!
We have the oil and coal to fuel us for many many decades to come. The market will find a solution to our problems with energy much faster than our monkeys in Washington ever will. When will we wake up and realize that these people do not EVER make anything better. They may put a duct tape band-aid on it, but rip off 10 times the skin when its time to remove it.
I do not believe in man made global warming, but living in North Dakota, I would welcome it.
