Wonder how much of total inflation is attributable to burning our food.

If you factor in that the rest of the world sees us as morons FOR NOT DRILLING (ie. not taking real problems seriously) in addition to the ethanol boondoggle I would say a huge part of it as fuel is an expense that everyone must factor into their costs and it is a cost that very little can be done to reduce.
Energy effects the costs of everything and we tied energy markets to food markets like dopes to make it worse
