In 2010 oil will be over $250 a barrel and gas will be $10 a gallon. With that you will either buy a hybrid which will still be expensive to operate or ride your bike or take the public transit. I suggest to get a fuel additive that reduces fuel consumption by 18%. I found just a product and it works. http://www.eyicom.com/saveautofuel Oil will never go below $85 again.

The real issue concerned Americans should be debating is gasoline use and oil imports vs. protecting food production/war for oil/the global war on terrorism/global warming/economic stimulation/insurance/record oil prices/free market/competition/staggering oil profits/jobs/and the ever increasing federal deficit. The debate should be fairly presented in the perspective of what choices are available today to solve problems vs. what are public policy makers and consumers actually willing to do that will make an immediate difference. There is a unified sense of urgency to do something. The real issue before our nation is what to do about our addition to oil, the impact of record gasoline prices on the public, and fossil fuel induced climate change – it’s not about ethanol. After 100 years oil has become a serious problem. If we wait for the oil company induced illusion of the perfect solution -- the next 100 years oil will be even worse. In the next 2-3 years ethanol could be a significant contributor to solving many of those issues above – if we give ethanol a fair chance to evolve. Corn-based ethanol is a proven way to stimulate rural America and the price of corn. As a result ethanol production keeps crop land in production, food production high, and land out of the developers hands. Farmers need a return on their investment – from somewhere. Because corn-ethanol is successful in temporarily increasing the demand for corn (the alternative to government subsidies) farmer subsidies were reduced last year by $2 billion. The development of corn-ethanol also resulted in the first bust-up of the 100-year strangle hold major oil companies have had on the “gasoline only” not-so-free market place. Corn-based ethanol also paved the road for the six million flexible fuel vehicles (FFVs, can burn 10%-85% ethanol) that are on the road TODAY. And when we look back 5 years from now most people will recognize corn-based ethanol was the most significant factor in developing new technologies that convert cellulose-based feedstocks into the same product that will be fueling the millions of more FFVs that will be on the road – ethanol. Record high oil and gasoline prices have more of an impact on food and other consumer prices when compared to this very short lived corn supply/demand imbalance. For many Americans the high price of gasoline has created a gasoline vs. food issue, not ethanol vs. food.
