Ethanol subsidy or sale out

Thought to Ponder

 

The ethanol subsidy may be the worst move ever by a government, or certainly one of the worst. First, you have to do a lot of calculating to determine that there is any carbon dioxide emissions advantage of ethanol over gasoline, and even that advantage could be negated if forests are cleared to plant more corn or swage (sp?) grass. You might even come out behind, especially globally, and make carbon dioxide emissions worse.

But what compounds the problem is that the subsidy on corn in the U.S. for ethanol production has taken acreage out of other crops like wheat (which has gone up about 5X in price), soy beans (which are good for the soil), etc.. And this decrease in acreage has not only increases the price of all serial crops but has increased the price of nearly all other foods (beef, chicken, bread, etc) because of the high cost of feed stock. It is also raising the price of fertilizers which are used in growth of corn.

While the subsidy on corn for ethanol may be good for farmers, it is turning into a disaster for the rest of us and probably the soil too.

Well the Subsidy is just one area that presents itself as a problem. You See we have a viable example of how to produce ethanol, you see in this field brazil is the leader, and for some reason they choose not to use corn. Now If you have any sense you would be wondering why we choose corn.

May it all another set up but the people who are in power, Just maybe they want you broke, you see it is easier to control a person that is in debt. Now am I saying there is some conspiracy? maybe I am, this conspiracy is about greed and if you take a look at the bill to find the sponsor, you will probably find the person with the most to gain by screwing up our sociality.

What I'm telling you is that the people you are putting in such high places are selling you out. That is my problem with Hillary, she had a chance to make a change in the health care system and she goofed it up, now she wants to be president, go figure maybe she will goof that up too. She wants us to have a social health care program, well every other civilized country has one, How soon do you forget that they waste your tax dollars on everything else, why not health care for use that just as good as the health care they get.

America wake up it's not that complicated the one people who get rich with health insurance is the insurance industry. They are the ones telling you that a government system of health care is wrong, Why? because the get paid by doing so. Now if that is Hillary or any other persons plan they are wrong. Maybe if they us all the tax payer money on a healthcare plan they won't spend all of your money bailing out banks and corporation so they can sale out your job. Think!
