Corn - Feed Me or Move Me? Why

Another in a not-so-regular series of posts highlighting nature's nature & 'ain't that odd'


Is it true that $3 of every $4 dollars our USA Federal Government gives out in tax credits for renewable energy credit goes towards corn ethanol? Is this a good thing to remove so much production from feeding the world when so many are starving? Does it even pass the smell test? I know my vehicle now gets 10%-15% less mpg due to ethanol. And, there may be a push (not common sense) to increase the ethanol content in gas! Do we know why this is a bad or good idea?
