FFS, ethanol it just another corporate welfare boondoggle. Most farms are corporate welfare queens these days. Subsidies don't help small farmers, they hurt them. If corn wasn't subsidized ethanol wouldn't be profitable. It might not even be energy positive (sugarcane ethanol is energy positive, but it doesn't grow in America).
Costs get passed on to the public as higher taxes, higher food costs, shitty mileage and more engine wear. But I suppose our disposable cars are now "good for the economy" too. (((Paul Krugman))) would certainly say so. All the cronies are just chasing digits round and round without giving a fuck about real world practical considerations. Such as all the parasites killing the host.
I'm all in favor of MAGA and fucking the Chinese but the way to do this is high tariffs on absolutely fucking everything, especially tech products. This will bring the jobs back home, we'll have stuff that doesn't break after a few months, we'll have more trustworthy tech, it will stop the Chinese from taking the piss out of us with their thievery, it will interfere with the Cabal's plans to make China their next host, and it might even cause enough chaos in China to bring down their rotten government.
