Obama is exactly the kind of politician to have the courage to screw the detractors, denounce the corn ethanol racket, tell Iowa to get fucked, and get us off that highly ruinous dead end.
Corn ethanol. Is that as bad a racket as it seems it is?? Takes planting fields out of human food production to grow a certain type of corn, and it takes about as much energy to make ethanol as it will produce.  In the meantime we limit imports on sugar based ethanol which is supposed to be a lot more efficient. And a big impetus to keep it all going is the money made off of this racket by those in the loop.    :huh:

If that's not enough, we also mix in some of that corn ethanol into fuel, which often degrades the efficiency of the car far beyond what you would expect just from lower energy density of ethanol.
