Well,what you are trying to say is that if oil is 50 dollars a barrel it makes ethanol higher priced?Trouble is when oil is 50 dollars a barrel the price of corn is lower.Yeah ethanol might be a little higher than gas with 50 dollar oil,but they keep improving the process.If they did use sugar cane it would be way lower priced.Major improvements to corn ethanol have happened since they started,which brought down the price.People probably wouldnt mind paying a little more for ethanol if it meant not buying foreign oil and the truth was told.Corn ethanol isnt perfect,but its a whole bunch better than doing nothing and having a surplus of corn filling up bins.Switchgrass is coming,so is algae oil,and that has to be better than buying it from countries that hate us.If there werent so many lies out there it wouldnt be so hard to see that ethanol is going to be what is burned in cars in the future.Less pollution,and as mileage to the gallon improves,so does everything else.As we improve what is used to make ethanol,and how it can be made faster,corn will stop being used for ethanol.If they succeed in making ethanol from switchgrass,then the process for making ethanol from corn will improve,and other things will be possible to make ethanol out of like corn stalks,cobs,maybe even weeds.Ethanol is here to stay unless it gets lied to death.
