Will You USE Blended Ethanol Gas in Your Car? Will it help?

[Richard]

Duh! That's why it's banned. The whole point of the thread was about the ban being waived. Where have you been? Too busy raving to pay attention.

Nice try on the flip

If you had known that you would have never come out the gate with - it will never happen because the service stations do not have the infrastructure.

You would have said - good luck with that,when Trump tried doing it the courts struck it down and did not allow it.

The question posted as a thread topic was - will you use blended ethanol gas in your car and will it help?

Pretty simple question.

My raving as you put it outlined the specific reasons as to why I thought it was a bad idea and went in depth as to why.

All you could come up with was - it will never happen,and you considered that a superior well thought out reply.

Thats not a discussion.

Maybe your disconnect comes from not understanding the whole purpose of a discussion is,if the OP was looking for a poll they would have put a poll thingy at the top.

I will tell you a little story,you are free to skip it,it happened probably when you were still in grammar school.

There is a country called Venezuela,it was rolling right along as one of the most productive and wealthiest countries in Latin America.

Along came a farmer called Chavez and decided to take that democracy and create a dictatorship out of it.

Americans did not like that,because dictatorships,socialists and wannabe socialists and commies are not in our Christmas list.

The oil company in the U.S. called CITCO is owned by the Venezuelan government and at the time 7-11 sold CITCO gasoline as their only brand in their 1000s of stores across the country.

Overnight Amercians stopped purchasing gas at 7-11 and from CITCO ,it almost bankrupted 7-11.

If people do not like E15 they will not buy it,you know that,I know that,Biden knows that,implementing it would cost billions in lost revenue.

The one thing you will not admit is,the very act of bringing the topic up under the current leadership was an act of pandering out of desperation.

When he brought it up he was in Iowa,looking for support because Iowa is the leading corn production state in the country.

So instead of looking for solutions to the mess that was created day one in office when those orders were signed removing this country from self reliance,and lower gas prices , and became energy and dependent on other countries.

The gas companies do not set the price per gallon,opec does,E15 does not drive the price of gas down,oversupply does.

All E15 does is water down the base in order to stretch it out.

So why even pander to the population looking for real answers,just like in this thread,people were looking for real answers so they could make that decision if and when the time comes.

Which is a bit more then

It will never happen
The service stations do not have the infrastructure to dispense it.

When the question was - will you use it - will it help



You still have not answered the questions posted and you keep twisting around like a rattle snake in a burlap bag.

The difference between when Trump tried to implement it and Biden trying to implement it?

There is a war going on,no surprise,but it does give Biden a leg up on getting it approved considering it could be sold as in the interest of national economic security.


The state of Michigan has already approved it with zero opposition from the courts,why would they do that if they already knew that the court shot Trump down,unless of course that court was a part of the resist anything Trump aspect.


Look at the timing when Michigan approved it,it was already decided they were going to implement it at least 1.5 years ago.

They not only passed the act,they also figured out the tax credit aspect,that has to be the fastest action any state has ever done in the history of the country.

Imagine if they put that same effort into fixing the potholes,they would be filled so fast it would take people 30 days before they even realized they were fixed.

Or even when it comes to transit.

You have to wonder what was the real motivation behind all of that in order to implement the passing of it at that speed.

Outside of pure desperation.

Like it or not at this time,everything we see feel and eat still depends on fossil fuels in its creation,the only way you are going to drive down costs is by increasing the supply of oil and extend the deadlines on the refineries,but some feel it is necessary to drive this country into a deep dark recession and make millions of Americans suffer all in the name of saving the planet and the best they can come up with is E15 pandering.

The right hand womans response was - all Amercians need to do is lower their standards.

She is kind right though,we really do not need to eat 3 meals a day,people lived without A/C and heating for decades and most rural locations did not get electricity until after 1946.
