Bet a nickle the domestic auto makers were pushing like hell for this to pass so they could force more of their ballooning inventory on the public.
Corn producers, car makers, and engine manufacturers, are the beneficiaries of this ethanol bullshit, not the public or the 'environment' as they claim. It is just another of hundreds of political kickback schemes, which is run by the biggest most powerful mafia in America, politicians and Congress. Where I am, I have not been able to find any gas without ethanol in it. There is no choice but to buy it, whether you want it or not.
