The Ethanol Industry: An Insider's Take

Hi Gale, You may be right ,..that there probably is a "plateau price" that people are willing to pay for gas / oil. ...but we haven't found it yet . I find it mind boggeling when I see people putting $50.00 to $75.00 into their fuel tanks. I switched to a small car years ago and let the drivers of those huge pick-ups do their thing,...I guess they think they are impressing someone ,....can't imagine who ?
Right now , it seems that a lot of people still don't really care that gasoline or alternatiives are so expensive. The automotive industry seems to have developed into two sectors, ...one market for those "gas guzzeling" pickups, and SUV's and another for commuters who just want to get to work and back cheap. Fortunately, at some point,..as dictated by economics,..people will find alternatives for those high priced fuels and big cars, pickups or SUV's !. At this point in time,.., people simply are not hurting enough to change ! Lee
