Ethanol has one more problem not mentioned in the article. In small engines (lawnmowers, snowblowers, etc) where gas can sit for 6 months it will harden and destroy the gaskets and make the engine fail.
Ethanol is BAD, add that to the MTBE that they add to the gas around here and I get 3 Miles to the Gallon Less.
Lets add that up, the Government get tax off every gallon, they cause the gas to be less productive, so they get more taxes. These guys ain't dumb after all. Vote them all out of office!!
