What a terrible example to give about capitalism's supposed failings...Ms.Witter needs to be reminded that ethanol was not a result of capitalist decision making, but g-o-v-e-r-n-m-e-n-t decision making...in other words, what she thinks is an awful thing is a result of the decision making of the people that she would put in charge of regulation/decision making... One also has to appreciate the "straw man" representation of capitalism by her saying that she is not for "out of control capitalism"...well who is...but then again who is to say that unregulated capitalism is out of control capitalism...
