Yep. I know of anguy that got into ethanol, put up a plant (a big fancy corn liquor still), grew easily, and now has control of an airport, where he built a fancy executive hangar and collects WWII warplanes and puts on air shows, all from Uncle Sugar Sam’s wallet.

Stop putting engine-damaging, low mpg alcohol in our gasoline! Enough!

Don’t let them. Cut off the Red Chinese regime. Starve them out. Use the Reagan strategy.

Yoohoo, that was in the Reagan era and people still think it happens but it hasn’t happened for decades.

C'mon now, when has ANY stupid gub'mint program EVER gone away? Now instead of paying them not to plant, maybe they penalize them for planting, through tax shenanigans.

Now let’s cut out the ethanol in gasoline requirements and sell them more corn. Or whatever farmers want to grow on that land.

Good idea.
