I saw this on the History Channel. Their climate is perfect for growing sugar cane. They make fuel from the sugar cane, then burn whats left (the pulp) in electrical generation facilities. The E100 fuel is cheaper than gasoline. They still have gas available at the pumps. But who is gonna buy it when it cost more. Flex Fuel vehicles were mandated by their government. So their cars can use gas or E100 or any combination. The E fuel is subsidized to keep its price low. The American goverment would never do that. They will subsidize farmers not to grow crops. They will subsidize bankrupt auto makers to keep jobs. They will subsidize wars in foriegn countries. But they won"t subsidize E fuels to help American farmers. All our oil is in Texas and Alaska, and the dipsticks are in Washington. Work hard, millions on welfare are depending on you. Sorry if this is too political. Pooh Bear
