Ethanol made from corn blows
Ethanol made from switchblade grass and other wasteful weeds yeild much higher volumes of ethanol, with half the energy.
Problem is people like yourself equate ethanol = corn, so commodity markets capitalize off the ignorance and rase prices.
Ethanol made from the multitude of non-corn is much better and a hell of a lot easier to manufacture then corn based.
Better then going to the beach and seeing 3 oil rigs on the horizion.
