You can pay the subsidie through taxes or pay the extra at the pump for gas and ethanol.
Without ethanol gas would be 30 cents a gallon higher at the pump. 10% more gas would be needed causing the price to go up. Ethanol is the only thing that can somewhat keep gas prices in check.
This country would be in poor shape without ethanol. The only thing we can trade back to China is grain. With grain being higher because of ethanol our debt to China gets paid back quicker with high grain prices. They only buy the grain they need so if they buy a million bushels at $6 a bushel they pay us 3 times what they did when grain was $2.
Ethanol would survive without the subsidie, the farmer would just recieve about one dollar less per bushel, I also believe the subsidie should end but like I said we will just pay more at the pump.
Everyone forgets we have been using ethanol here in the midwest for 35 years and I don't hear many complaints from machanics or users here.
The farmer has also recieved less subsidies since this ethanol thing has spread nation wide.
So what your taxes spend in ethanol subsidies you save in payments to farm subsidies.
Is this a farm based forum? You know tractors on farms. Ethanol is one of the best things that has happen to the American farmer.
