please google "Brazil" and "ethanol" and be educated on how unreliable these kinds of posts can be.

The Brazillian ethanol program required MASSIVE SUBSIDIES to get on their own two feet. I'm not sure if the Brazillian govt still has to subsidize their ethanol industry. The USA can not follow the Brazillian ethanol model because the USA does not have enough land suitable for growing sugar cane. Corn based ethanol is extremely inefficent. Sugar cane based ethanol is much better.

Like I said, corn-based ethanol is crap...
And realize that I forget more knowledge than you will every learn in a lifetime...
