Food for fuel has nothing to do with protecting big oil profits so lay off the red herring asshat.

Corn ethanol is a poor substitute for oil too. Renewable like ethanol are not going to slow the growth of global warming either. Quit living in a make believe world. Corn ethanol is a waste and not sustainable.
