Using ethanol should not make fuel and transportation prices cheaper.
Depends where you get the ethanol from - there are better sources than corn - i.e. non-edible ones.Spark wrote:
Problem: if you use more ethanol, less food. Food prices go up as their is less supply.
If you use LESS ethanol, transportation costs go up. Adds to costs, food prices go up anyway.
Well, it seems to.
Otherwise there would be no real incentive for using ethanol (10% ethanol fuel is about 4-5 cents cheaper than standard unleaded ATM)

The paradox is only a conflict between reality and your feeling what reality ought to be.

And the resulting 10% decrease in gas mileage makes it so much cheaper...Spark wrote:

Results may vary!

Yeah. I would be surprised if ethanol was half as efficient as petrol...
EDIT: Everywhere has E10 now. Most service stations are displaying the discount price for E10 instead of petrol. Draw from that what you will...

woah woah WOAH everybody!
Rammunition is afk I guess, So I WILL fill in.
THIS thread is about The United States of Americunts' President blaming other countries for things that are actually the U.S.' Fault.
so "can we please not change the subject and stick to the question, thank you"
Talking about ethanol has nothing to do with Americunts being Americunts, along with thier americunt President. However, if you want to bring up something other than the article posted, as long is it slanders Amerikkka, then it's ok.
Of course, I doubt I can get you Amerigas to do that, since you are all so stupid, and are overwieght sheep.
