Default Re: Ethanol

Here's a news flash that point's out the unintended costs of ethanol.

Catfish farmers in Mississippi have shut down because at $280.00 per ton, the cost of feed, ie Corn, is too high. The $462 MM annual industry has essentially shut down taking about 10,000 American jobs with it.

Ethanol still gets almost $1.00 per gal of tax payer's money as a subsidy to support this nonsense.

Thank your congresssmen, Al Gore, Sen. Harry Reid and Speaker of the House, Nancy Palosi.

Corn farmer's however, are delighted.
