The lead caused massive environmental and health problems, but it also kept valve guides from wearing out. Millions of engines suffered premature wear without lead. Modern engines don't need it anymore.
It is all politics of money and no use in getting upset about all this again.
Just that everyone here, with a little fire, left in them, needs to run for office and displace all the yahoos, in Government, doing this to us.
We're way better off now, but I imagine a lot of folks were upset about the "government interference" at the time.
Apples and oranges.
Biodiesel is a child of Agra Businessmen under the green washing that raising fuel will save the planet, but all it does is fatten their wallets and we support it with taxes in subsidy and in higher prices at the pump. Exactly the same with ethanol where the Industry/Corn Growers spend millions telling us how gret it is and stuffing the bank accounts with subsidies and money from Consumers forced to buy it.
It is crooked and corrupt and immoral and we have some defend it.
