[QUOTE="ms, post: 56936"] Here in the Midwest they push Ethanol blended (15%) gasoline. It is mandated that state vehicles use Ethanol and IA has started a pilot program with vehicles running on 85% ethanol. It is about 5 cents cheaper per gallon ($1.90) then regular gas but only because it is subsidized by the government. Without subsidy it would cost about $.60 more per gallon than gas. It also takes more energy to produce Ethanol than it provides. Pork barrel. Doesn't a liter of gas cost about $5 in the UK? Nobody drives 60 miles to go to the grocery store. If possible large corporations should provide satelite offices to prevent commutes for people. [/QUOTE]
