Without the farm subsidies ethanol would be very expensive.

Right, let's do...nothing.

Doing nothing is better than doing the wrong thing. Ethanol still has
not proved it's value.

Ethanol is a ruse. We should be investing in switchgrass or algae
production and refinement.

Why not CNG, it is cheap, clean and we have plenty of it?

Why not invest in something we can grow instead of ripping apart the
earth's crust while spoiling the water table with toxins and dangerous
gases?

Because we are going to run out of water long before we run out of
oil.

So, we should make the problem worse by using fracking?

Did you just learn a new word?

? Are you trying to insult me? If so, try again.

I agree there have been some problem in a few places with this but the
majority of the fracking does not hurt anyone.

Some problems? Lots of problems... igniting water from someone's tap
is pretty serious. Don't know about the majority. You mean more than
50%?

Do you know of anything that doesn't affect someone?

Sure. If my cat pees on a bush and I don't know about it, I suspect
nobody is affected. Is that an equivalency attempt you're trying to
make?
