We got a lot of fertilizer out of the previous administration as well. :^)
The problem with ethanol is the US sugar industry. More specifically, the
complex relationship between agribusiness and the US government makes progress
almost impossible.
There is a false premise that many in Congress claim we are supporting "free
market" enterprise. In a truly free market we would be importing Brazilian
sugar by the boatload. That would bring the cost down at the pump *and* reduce
our dependence on middle-eastern oil.
