Ethanol subsidy and boating

wrote: In article c09ff065-aa24-4628-af9c-23f8bd3bd1f6 , says... The demise of the ethanol subsidy for fuels is the best thing to happen to boating in the past few years. In many places, it has become very difficult to get ethanol free fuels to operate boat motors and ethanol in boat fuels has caused major problems and even destroyed many boat motors. Fuel explosions have even occurred on boats due to the ethanol dissolving fuel lines. It has been known for a long time that making ethanol from corn is an energy sink, it takes more energy to produce the ethanol than energy saved. Even worse, it drive up the cost of food and causes vehicles to be less fuel efficient. Why did it take a Republican house to finally do what anybody with more than two neurons could see needed to be done? CONGRESS FINALLY DID SOMETHING RIGHT. Too much lack of knowledge and understanding here to comment on. So I'll just do the easy correction. Nothing happened. The Senate vote mean absolutely nothing. The pols have suckered you once again. Correct. It would need the companion bill in the House to pass, then it goes to committee, then the President would have to sign it. The WH has said it won't, and it's unlikely to survive in the House. However, that's what negotiation is all about. I disagree that the Senate vote means nothing. I think it indicates there's a possibility of rational minds to win out over partisan bickering. |

I guess enough good republicans and a good brain day. Not all repulicans are good, some are fleabaggers. But on a good day fleabaggers don't vote. You fellows don't seem to get anything right. The votes in question were in the Senate, not the House, and is opposed by most teabagger Republicans. Who cares, less subsidies, less taxes, less government is always good. Fleabaggers are too selfish and needy screw ups to understand why. -- Government isn't the solution to the bad economy, it is the problem. |
