2 Old 2 Care said: (quoted from post at 11:14:45 12/09/14) Care to cite FACTS backing up your claim? I'd suspect you'll skip that, since there are no more "subsidies"......
Funny....If US oil companies make money, people whine. If foreign oil companies make money, people complain. If farmers and ethanol companies make money, yep....people complain.

HMMMM, Russia, Iran, Mexico, Venezuela and Saudi Arabia to name just a few all have cheaper gas than us. The prices of gas if you care to look are directly related to nanny state governments. The more socialist the system is the higher the price.
As far as cash subsidies are concerned they are gone but mandated ethanol blends in gas are a form of subsidy. The plants know they are going to sell X number of gallons a year.
