The Ethanol Boom's Unintended Consequences

I have to agree with Mr. Morris as I was raised on a farm and we never fed cattle any corn ! Silage in the winter, yes, but not corn !! Only the "feed lots" give cattle grains to fatten them up . In fact, having been to Australia and New zealand, they only eat grass fed beef which is far more tender and far less fattening, meaning far less cholesterol and saturated fats. In this country, it appears that the Gov. insists on having those ribbons of fat ,..meaninng cholesterol and saturated fats,..to make it into what they want to call "prime". Guess the Gov. is trying to kill us off with cholesterol,..
Just this past week when shopping , I picked up some fresh corn on the cob, and it was the same price as last year,..6 ears for a buck !
