In a perfect world I would agree with you... Let the markets decide! But the decisions our country makes in the next few years will be extremely critical to our future and our children's future.

The farm lobby has a stranglehold on our politicians. That should have evaporated in the late forties but it still exists to the detriment of all of us especially the third world. When I debate the subject of ethanol with some of my friends and ask them a very specific question "How efficient are plants at converting solar energy?" they just stare at me. If you asked all 535 of our legislators in the Federal government probably only one person I know would be able to answer.
