In Reply to: End of ethanol.... posted by muckfarmer on March 06, 2011 at 02:47:08:
I am suprised it hasnt already ended! When gas prices go up; the subsidy is less important to make it competitive as opposed to regular oil based fuel. If oil goes to $200 a barrel ethanol will be a bargain I would bet, & with goverment debt they really need to end all subsidies except for maybe the smallest 5, or 10% of farmers. Lets face it; 5000 acre farms were never originally meant to be given goverment handouts, & its really criminal to keep it going. Tyson foods the offender of hiring illegals (who pay no income tax) received about a 1/2 million $"s in subsidies just a few years ago, & still had profits in the 100"s of millions! Why did they need a single dollar? Subsidies not suprisingly have been a carrot for congress, & some presidents, & this country needs weined from it badly! & I mean all areas of subsidies, not just agriculture!
Then You have the USDA which sends subsidy payments to people living in housing divisions, & when they send the checks back saying they dont farm are told to keep it anyway; What a travisty that is by itself!!! Its just another goverment mess that needs to almost, or totally end!

Today's Featured Article - 12-Volt Conversions for 4-Cylinder Ford 2000 & 4000 Tractors - by Tommy Duvall. After two summers of having to park my old 1964 model 4000 gas 4 cyl. on a hill just in case the 6 volt system, for whatever reason, would not crank her, I decided to try the 12 volt conversion. After some research of convert or not, I decided to go ahead, the main reason being that this tractor was a working tractor, not a show tractor (yet). I did keep everything I replaced for the day I do want to restore her to showroom condition.
