"Of course, this wasn't entirely unpredictable... we've been warned over and over that corn-based ethanol was extremely inefficient."

Not only is it inefficient, you run into the issues of converting a basic food crop to fuel. Some people, myself included, have argued against corn-based ethanol for this reason.

"but it's THIS government that doesn't ever, ever, properly foresee, or plan for, consequences and their contingencies."

Sad, but true.
