Interesting you would claim that when the Environmental Protection Agency says they do require it.

2012 Standards for Renewable Fuel Standard Program (RFS2): Final Rulemaking
“EPA is establishing the volume requirements and associated percentage standards that will apply under the RFS2 program in calendar year 2012 for cellulosic biofuel, biomass-based diesel, advanced biofuel, and total renewable fuel. The standards will ensure that transportation fuel sold in the United State contains a minimum volume of renewable fuel as required by the Energy Independence and Security Act of 2007. “

Please also consider the fact that it takes more petroleum to produce ethanol than the ethanol has in volume or energy. Private companies do not benefit unless the government offsets the increased price with subsidies, in which case tax payers get the higher expense and China loans us more money. The entire world loses out in requiring ethanol in gasoline – - – well, except for some corn farmers, of course.

David considering how politicians buy votes

We all know I favor nuclear but until it fits into a car, natural gas is nice too.
It won’t work for long distance hauls, not enough stations, but potential.

David thinking folks would think twice
ere running to nuclear powered car,
like a souped up Pinto

NOTHING MOVES IN THIS COUNTRY WITHOUT DIESEL. At some point it is put on a train or big truck that runs on diesel. Most things are never moved by gasoline until you take them home. We need to recognize this difference and the difference in how diesel is treated by the government.

We need to do everything we can to keep low-sulfur diesel as cheep as possible to help hold down the cost of almost EVERYTHING.

And NO MORE ETHANOL! We are driving our cars with higher food prices and it has been proven with no improvement in the environment and instead making it worse when growing it is added to the calculations.
