This most recent misadventure has been a farce from the get-go.

You can not expend natural gas to make fertilizer to grow the corn; then further expend energy to process ethanol, and expect ethanol to be a viable energy source.

This only works if we the tax-payer subsidize the process.

Finally, the unexpected result of having corn shortages, should doom the whole stupid idea.
