Our Potus has pushed and pushed the idea of utilizing our farmlands to grow and harvest corn and or soybeans to be processed into Ethanol. The idea is to lessen our reliance on foreign oils for our industry and our use in our automobiles.
Well, Ethanol is extremely corrosive and will cause the loss of our cars life by leaps and bounds.
Ethanol decreases our fuel efficiency and thus we lose any advantage in the MPG category.
One of our northern states is contemplating the possibility of making an Ethanol blend for their state to around 25%, which means that there will be no shortage of gasoline in their state. as that mixture will
burn out all of the automobiles engines in less than 3-6 months, rendering everyone in a "walking state."
The usage of our land to cultivate any grain products to fuel our cars is getting nothing but screams from other countries...as it should.
It has been estimated that the amount of Ethanol that is poured into an average sized SUV to completely fill its tanks would feed an individual in a third world country for a year. Did you read this....a Freaking Year!!!
Where is our moral thinking on this, where is our common sense, where are our leaders that can shift through this insane madness????!!!! There are no leaders, no pariahs to help us to sift through this insanity.
Several countries have spoken out for the United States and others, to stop with the BioFuels, that we should fill a stomach instead of a gas tank.
But what does President Bush say?
We need to utilize more land and push for more biofuels to ease our dependence on foreign oil. WTF?
What the hell is he thinking, what is anyone in authority thinking?? Apparently they are not thinking of the general population, they are not thinking of our welfare, they are not thinking in a moral or humanitarian way, they are thinking only of themselves and their cronies...irregardless of the future consequences and the death and destruction of the populations around the world at large!!
Listen, I don't claim that we can ever get remedy for the poor, that is Biblical, but we are not supposed to do things that will make the poor people destitute, despondent, or cause them to be eradicated. We are supposed to utilize our resources to help others, not socialism, which is inherently flawed, not communism, again inherently flawed. But I believe that we should use our resources, as a wonderful nation, to help others that slip through the cracks.
We can't do that with these Moronic ideas to utilize farmland to fill our car tanks that, in the long run, do nothing but destroy our cars and cause us to actually use more oil than ever before.
START DRILLING HERE AND OFFSHORE, START BUILDING NEW REFINERIES, TELL THE ENVIRONMENTALISTS TO KISS OUR ASSES, SCREW SOME BIRD THAT MIGRATES FROM MEXICO TO TEXAS... OR WHATEVER!!!
THAT KEEPS US FROM EXPANDING OUR CAPACITIES TO KEEP OUR NATION ON THE TOP OF THE LIST AND THE GREATEST CHARITABLE COUNTRY IN THE HISTORY OF THE WORLD.
Our leaders and their ideas are from some self-serving "Intelligentsia" college grouping and they are destroying not only our country, but causing the death and destruction of millions throughout the world. Enough is Enough.
We cannot, ever, have this sort of Neanderthal thinking guiding our lives and decisions. They are completely out of touch with the needs of the common man here and abroad.
'Nuff said.
