Ethanol in engines is a bad idea, with few upsides

I agree! The only "upside" is forcing consumers to put money in the pockets of corporations like Archer Daniels Midlands and their suppliers. Concentrated good for a very few and misery at the pump for everyone else. One of the several downsides is that it takes more fossil fuel energy to produce a gallon of ethanol than you get out of it. Far from promoting energy independence it promotes energy DEPENDENCE. One of the GOPe crony capitalism legacies. You don't think that the turd that formerly befouled the white hut was the only one who did this do you?

I'm not a Bible thumper, but God gave us oil and gas to burn and food to eat.

Sooner or later, God is going to get pissed that we are burning our food.
