Yet another proof that the ethanol subsidy on the part of the world's governments is a truly terrible idea--
Not only are forests being razed to grow corn (adding to global warming, anyone? No more CO2 absorption by THOSE trees), and not only has ethanol production contributed to corn shortages and food riots in poor countries, but now there are other food shortage problems cropping up, so to speak.
When this is all done, the ones who suffer most will be, as always, the POOR.
The very people leftists always claim to be speaking for, helping, defending against the depredations of the evil rich, are the ones who suffer most from the consequences of leftist policies.
When the evil rich are taxed and beaten down to lower middle class, they will still be able to eat.
Not so the poor.
