The ethanol debate is an offshoot caused by the incredible runup in oil price. It is further exacebated by two consecutive years of modest world grain production probably caused by Al Gore :).. Hopefully next year there won't be floods in the midwest and droughts in Australia and the grain bins will become so full again we will be bringing back support for corn ethanol. But until the 2009 crop comes in food will be extremely expensive with or without ethanol or expensive oil.

We get interest free loans to buy bicycles where I work (in the UK). You'll be unlucky to get food riots in the US (some of your poorest people are also your fattest) but burning corn instead of eating it sure puts the price up.
