Ethanol take a shot across the bow

[BigLew]

McGillicuddy, I pretty much agree with you.

Take ethanol. Use of it, as in current practice, raises prices of gasoline/energy, raises taxes for ethanol subsidies, raises maintenance/repair costs of the epuipemnt it is used in and, if that was not enough, raises food costs for everyone. In a period when everyone should be looking for ways to put money into the hands of consumers inorder to drive this consumer driven economy, each gov't "program" should/must be reviewed in context of progam objectives and success of accomplishment/ duplication. Start at the least productive and have a Bon Fire of Inefficiency!
Once that is done, THEN we can begin to recast the survivors to be more efficient/successful. Just my 2cents.
