I am very much conservative and beleive in capitalism. However, when a private company becomes so big that it is an oppressive force itself, I see no great advantage in it. Federally owned, or corporate megacorp....what's the difference to the average joe?

It appears that whatever environmental benefits an oxygenate requirement had in the early 90s, they have weakened considerably since then as a more decisive role is played by improvements in auto emissions technology. My guess is that ethanol will continue to be used in growing.
