 Premium Fuel for Generator Avoid Ethanol Myth

The more I know the more I realize more is lost when money goes through D.C. than in many times reaches those it is suppose to help. I would be glad to see our Fed Government get back to the real responsibilities it is suppose to and let the market handle the rest.

 Premium Fuel for Generator Avoid Ethanol Myth

Don't get me started on the Farm Bill, and I'm a retired farmer. About 15 percent of the money in the legislation signed into law Friday will go to farmers to help them grow the food we eat. Most of the other 85% in the almost $100 billion-a-year law will go to food stamps. And of the meager 15% that goes to actual farmers in the form of direct payments, a portion again goes to people who don't even farm anymore.

Of all the subsidies in the bill, it's the ethanol subsidy that galls me most. Given the success other countries have had refining ethanol from switchgrass and sugar cane/beet residuals, there's no excuse for us to still be making it from corn. There's a massive world market for our corn, so ethanol from other vegetation shouldn't lower corn production figures at all. Instead of burning it - export it. Acreage that the Feds are now paying farmers NOT to grow stuff, could be used for switchgrass and sugar cane/beets. Yet this bunch in Washington still wants to burn what could be somebody else's food.
