Re: WHAT!!??? E85 prices!!

Corn needs to be used for food not for fuel. There is plenty of oil in the ground that is used to make gas.

Corn used for ethanol production is field corn typically used to feed livestock

Yeah I get it but then they should be growing corn that people can eat instead of livestock crops. Im sure the millions of hungry people in Africa would love to have some corn instead of mud pancakes or they Americans that are going to bed hungry. Plus the fact that it takes so much energy Just to make a gallon of fuel from corn its not worth producing it. But that's where the government steps in and hands out our tax money.
We have years & years of oil & natural gas still waiting to be taken out of the ground just on our shores.

Re: WHAT!!??? E85 prices!!

The United States has the largest known deposits of oil shale in the world, according to the Bureau of Land Management and holds an estimated 2.175 trillion barrels of potentially recoverable oil.

Yeah that is a T in front , a Trillion.

So lets make fuel from corn....idiots.

Re: WHAT!!??? E85 prices!!

Go to pure-gas.org to get list of ethanol free gas stations and then go to fuel testers.com to fill out petition against E15 and to keep pure gas available.
