oh you mean like Oil did "on its own" in the middle east for 50 years with the USA military involved keeping the flow going..............studies show the true cost of gas to the consumer at that time as over 5.00 for a gal of gas, when gas at the pump was approx. 1.50.............
*****
No military personnel has had to die for a gallon of Ethanol ..............moonshine yes
My God it really is true that a persons view of history begins the day a person is born.....Nobody died for ethanol huh? Exactly how did the entire US corn belt come into the control of those who came before you? I think you'd find a whole lot of people residing on Indian reservations who might take a little exception to the idea nobody died in the struggle for control of the natural resource known as the US Corn Belt. The only difference is all that fighting and dying ended 100 years ago....and the fighting and dying for the control of the natural resource know as oil BEGAN about 100 years ago.
The short history of the US is replete with wars, fighting and dying for control of land and the natural resources found on and under it. That is the way of the world from the beginning of time, its no different now than any other time in history. And it will be the way of the world as long as life exists on it. |
