The GOP's energy bill will require ethenol in gasoline, apparently
even in areas that do not have smog issues.

Is this the end of autogas?


It affects marine as well as aviation interests. A really bad idea.

According to the news I heard, it has to be sold nationwide because
each gallon will be subsidized by your tax dollar to the tune of $.53.
It will cost more to produce that the gallon of gasoline it is
replacing. Only winners here are the corn-belt states that will be
paid to produce something that nobody really wants(or perhaps, can
use).
