"anyone using bio-fuel is only pissing their money away, you might as well burn it..."

Lower energy density is long known... Here are the numbers

en.wikipedia.org

Energy density (MJ/L)
Gasoline (petrol) 34.2
Gasohol E10 (10% ethanol 90% gasoline by volume) 33.18
Biodiesel oil (vegetable oil) 33

The 3% just on energy density adds up.
