How dumb are these people? WE need CO 2 for our plants. They give off oxygen. This is not what America needs. Please stop this land grab by the greedy pigs at the trough.

Exactly my thought. Instead of the mafia like extortion by criminally greedy subjects, why not planting more trees? Not enough money to be made? It doesn't even matter what industrial pharmers and large scale farmers grow. Thousands of acres without a single tree to be seen? That is the real issue. Trees are obstacles to industrial/large scale farming. Can't have a combine change its straight line course. Profoundly sick minds.

Well, I don't enjoy saying this, but if the farmers are going to make a living off of that damned Ethanol, they shouldn't be surprised if it bites them in the ass.

We farm and I agree with you. Farmers have ended up in a trap. We need to get back to feeding people not feeding corporations bank accts. It's time to take a fking stand.

Issue doesn't seem to be just the land grab, but the collection of CO2 itself. I thought the admin. was dumping the climate issue. Corn farming depletes the land and farmers need to keep adding large amounts of fertilizer every year to make up for that loss. the rain run-off then pollutes the waterways. Crop rotation needs to be practiced again. Raise cattle for the manure to fertilize. We also don't know the chemical effects on humans with ethanol being mixed with gasoline.

"...mitigating climate change...", "safe and effective", "...to many people on earth..." - are all joined at the hip. However, it surely helps for people to see that they are as deceived as ever before. The revolving door works for both aisles and it is used extensively - until the people rise up and take their lives back.
