Matt Bennett commented on John McCain: Is ethanol overhyped? on January 31, 2008, 10:22 AM
Atta Boy, McCain! We're not talking about helping Joe the good-natured, Iowa corn farmer here. Subsidies for ethanol are subsidies for Monsanto and ADM. Fact is, corn doesn't need any more subsidies. These guys get heaps already. And when the farm bill is more about energy than farming, something has seriously gone awry. Spend the money on plug-in electric cars powered by new nuclear reactors, now we're really talking about progress.
