The difference the 89 is cheaper than 87 in Iowa is that it has lower state gas tax. Support the farmers and all by selling more ethanol blend, with lower taxes.

The difference is more likely that the "89" is ethanol and the "87" is not. Ethanol is subsidized at 45¢ per gallon from the federal government.

Explain to me why I should subsidize Iowa farmers at that rate.
