So Exxon Mobil can import ISIL produced Crude from Syria/Iraq.. TAX FREE.. on a LEVEL PLAYING FIELD with the local Ethanol plant.

and the $$$ flows TAX FREE back to ISIL who does.. whatever it does with it... fair eh?

I laid out HOW THIS Is OCCURING below..

And Jon was the one that referenced Eisenhower increasing taxes to put in the Interstate system, implying that a tax increase for the good of the country is beneficial, also implying that ethanol is for the good of the country.  

I'm not implying it.. I'm flat out stating it as FACT:

FACT: unlike the middle east.. you don't have to kill people to maintain a Stable Energy supply.

We tried that..  Starve the US Petro industry until imports reach 65%.. boom something explodes.. prices go to the moon.. and we fund ISIL terrorist everytime we fill up at the pump.

no need to imply that.. EVERYONE KNOWS it already.

been there done that... 

Cruz's energy plan is to let the free market provide the cheapest energy.. which right now comes from ISIL.. seriously?  Is that what you want?

Bare NONE they are the cheapest on the planet right now.  When your E&P program comes from a soldier behind an AK 47 gun.. Econ 101 says they win.

"Jihadis' oil operation forces even their enemies to trade with them.."



 It's an enlightening read..  and their control is growing.. even with so called "air raids to stop it."

suppose we're burning jp1 produced from their crude to fight them...???

well at least we would be tax dollar "efficient" then wouldn't we? 

At $10,000 per truckload they got $450 million in revenues stolen in crude in only 10 months from one field in Iraq while they held it... Military precision.. they were ready to go from Day 1 when they took it over..



wow.

So we pay taxes to fight ISIL who is funded by selling us Crude at the pump tax free.. sounds like a circular firing squad.

show of hands.. Who wants that?
