Ethanol is a lie. It has only purpose; making money for those who grow corn. That’s it. No benefit to the environment; it fact it hurts the environment once everything is factored in. Big lie.

Actually it doesn’t.
Corn would make about as much money if fed to hogs and sold as ham and bacon.

What ethanol does do is raise the price of food, generate a source of graft payments, and create a raft of paid mostly leftwing bureaucrats. I submit that those three things were the actual purpose originally.

“It has only purpose; making money for those who grow corn.”

My guess is that there’s someone in between my wallet and the farmer, otherwise we would be sensible about our fuel.

Absolutely and its,ruining our cars. I keep hearing about leftists go on and on about banning cars, so I am not surprised they want to damage them.
