Yeah I love it when ranchers are denied silage corn, the cost of milk and butter has shot up markedly, there are zero studies available to the public showing actual emissions federal emissions studies of ethanol components in gasoline and the bigger lobbiests in DC are grinning like Cheshire cats.
Have to have ethanol for cars?, Make it federal law, enforceable, that 100.00% of feedstock for combustible fuel ethanol must be derived from sugar beets and cane.
Mexico threw Archer Daniels Midland out, on their butt. Ethical? The company was planning on selling corn syrup to American owned soft drink companies for 30% less than the market price for corn syrup. Once the cane farmers went bankrupt, ADM would then jack up the price of the corn syrup.
And Americans are foolish enough to allow politicians, and ADM lobbying to skew EPA claims. There is ZERO hard proof that alcohol does what is claimed of it.
Brasilians choke on downtown streets in Sao Paulo, and Rio de Janiero. Been there, choked that...
Documented and proven. My automobile loses 8% fuel economy using Chevron regular with alcohol. Over and over and over again. The same route, the same level of traffic, the same speed. As compared to pure USA refined gasoline (border area) sold in Mexico. Refined in Mexico MAGNA is nowhere as good as its refined in USA regular gas cousin.
When I come north for doctor appointments in the end of the year, two jugs of border gasoline will be in the trunk. At 3.71 per gallon, times 108% I do not have money to burn four dollar a gallon garbage in my automobile.
Pure ethanol alcohol is hard to get in the states because of liquor taxation. Pure alcohol (DIN) is easy to get down here. I purchased a liter several years ago and immersed a one and one half inch length of GATES 5/16" fuel hose in it. A month later I fished out the glob with a coathanger.
I am supposed to pay inflated prices for milk, butter, beef, so a few fat cats can vacation in Mallorca? And buy yachts bigger than a football field? While destroying fuel pump and injectors? /Maybe newer cars use different rubber and vinyl compounds.
Listen, and read. State governments would become ecstatic of cars got one mile per gallon and all that new state gasoline revenue tax hit the coffers. Sometimes I cannot believe how gullible the public is.
Go to a midget car race sometime or the indy 500. Sit close. GAG! Bring a case of Kleenex for tears and stuffed up noses. Oh by the way, enjoy your beef prices - I purchase fork tender T bone steak down here for 120 pesos a kilogram. Four dollars twenty cents a pound.
