Yet there are nuts right here who swear that the impact of biofuel will not raise commodity prices at all.

Name two.

>Name two.

You have got to be kidding me.

I have had bitter arguments here with many people who simply do not understand or accept the principle of a market economy.

Too much public education perhaps. - Look at this post to me: - Malthusian BS??

We don’t plant all the arable land in the US now, so your concern is invalid with respect to a rise in the price of food. We pay farmers now not to plant crops.
Further, non-food crops will end up making biofuels - they are more efficient (e.g. switchgrass). Stop the Malthusian BS, it just isn’t going to work out like that.
