RE: [RC] [RC] Cost of hay - Chastain, Shannon L.I guess I don't understand anyone
dislike of ethanol. I live in the corn belt and I see thousands of pounds of
corn sitting on the ground at elevators, rotting because we are not "using" it.
I see hundreds of acres of great farm ground in set aside again because we are
not using the crops the land could be producing. I would love to see all
cars/trucks using a product from the USA instead of foreign oil then all that
corn would be used. I am paying up to 30 cents less a gallon for ethanol here.
Sure it does use energy to produce ethanol but it can and should use energy we
produce in the USA again getting us away from foreign oil. This country is
finally again seeing the value in Nuke and wind power.

shows just a couple of months ago abouth this subject. It appears no crop is
safe, and hay is also being supplanted by corn...all so we can also pay MORE for
this iodtic notion of gasoline...anyone want to fnind out the energy required to
MAKE the ethanol? See what's free at AOL.com.
