Ethanol is not produced from food grade corn. You will not "create less pollution." The excess fertilizer that will be released in the gulf will cause severe damage to the gulf and the fisherman working there. What I think you fail to understand is what Subsidy Eye keeps pointing out, ethanol is not as effecient as gasoline. "There is no free lunch." Friedman had it right]]> Sat, 06 Sep 2008 15:59:51 -0400 One can be concerned about the dead zone as well as the food supply, they are not mutually exclusive.

Thank you for sharing your intrests in the program National Geographic with me. I think you fail to missunderstand a few points however. The first problem is that you have your history wrong. Oil prices spiked to their highest ever when Iraq invaded Kuwait the first time. (I did not find that on National Geographic, but you can check various references.) I never said that these actoions would make oil cheaper now, that is your mistake. These actions by the Government were to prevent future disruptions. Maybe I should repeat that JJason. These actions were to prevent future disruptions. Oil supply is critical for the U.S. military, the U.S. was not likely to leave a dictator in place with ambitions to invade Iran and Kuwait. The invasion of Iraq has nothing to do with oil prices today, it has to do with oil prices 10 years from now. ]]> Wed, 09 Jul 2008 02:49:43 -0400 I was already familar that the U.S military was the largest user of petrol.

Trying to attribute one variable to the rise of the price of oil is not a very practical and makes little sense. ]]> Sat, 05 Jul 2008 00:57:07 -0400 It is little more complicated than that.

On the contrary it was quite open. Kenedy made sure that relations would be kept open have our little Cuban incident. We also had relations through a host of other countries that were not happy about the possibility of a nuclear exchange. You say that have we learned nothing after Iraq, but should that be a suprise? On the contrary the U.S. has an amazing track record of destabilizing and outright overthrowing governments. This is not likely to end. You would be hard pressed to find a government in S. America we haven't removed at least once or tried to. Wars for oil will continue in the future, they seem to be unavoidable. The current administrations lack of communication with Iran is worrysome. We always engaged the Soviets, no matter who was in office. The unfortunaye thing is that through the lack of communication and by ostrasizing the Iranians we seem to be overnight creating an Iranian, Russian, Sino alliance, both economically and politically. ]]> Sat, 28 Jun 2008 23:34:45 -0400 I would debate your comment that communication between the Soviets and the U.S. were poor.

I fail to recognize any similarity between Soviet/U.S. relations and Israeli/I ranian relations. It is as if you are saying that just because no nuclear exchange happened durring the cold war that we should expect nothing to happen between the Israelis and Iran. I fail to understand this reasoning. I fail to understand how the two situations relate to each other.]]> Thu, 26 Jun 2008 00:12:19 -0400 Kunst please explain this comment.
