Big oil abandoned the idea of using corn to fuel cars. It takes more enegery to produce the gas than it gives out. Ethanol from corn is a complete failure, but people dont realize that big oil still uses this as an excuse to jack the prices. Less than 10% of our gas is E85 ethanol, and you need a special car to burn it, therefore bad corn crops should have no effect on the price of gasoline, but it will because big oil is doing everything they can to make money before people finally realize we need new technology to fuel our planet.
