Ethanol Is The Methadone For Our Energy Addiction

With the rising cost of oil, the insecurity of hostile oil producing countries, and the need to create domestic American jobs, it seems the time has never been more right to begin a dynamic Ethanol program throughout the United States. It’s time we quit subsidizing countries such as the Sudan, Iran, and Valenzuela. Remember, as the price of oil goes up these bastards are raking in the profits. Their bad attitude rants towards America resemble the phony type of obnoxious tirades bandied about at Don King Pay Per View Conferences. However, their silly stupid phony standoffs with the United States jack our cost of oil so high they laugh all the way to the bank. I believe it is time we really hold the President to his word and demand that we see an immediate pouring of billions into financing and aid to domestic American businesses who enter into the Ethanol business in the domestic United States. We could use the jobs, we could use the money, and like all the people say about buying imports, the money would stay right here in the United States. With all this said I have to ask, ‘What are we waiting for?’

High oil prices lead to talk of recession and Alan Greenspan spoke the recession word loudly this week. According toCNN.com Greenspan stated, “The U.S. economy grew at a surprisingly strong 3.5 percent rate in the fourth quarter of 2006, up from a 2 percent rate in the third quarter. A survey released Monday by the National Association for Business Economics showed that experts predict economic growth of 2.7 percent this year, the slowest rate since a 1.6 percent rise in 2002. Greenspan also warned that the U.S. budget deficit, which for 2006 fell to $247.7 billion, the lowest in four years, remains a concern.
“The American budget deficit is clearly a very significant concern for all of us that are trying to evaluate both the American economy’s immediate future and that of the rest of the world,” he said via satellite at the VeryGC Global Business Insights 2007 Conference.” CNN.com, 2007)

American business is under siege by creepy shadowy outsourcing bastards and energy thieving monopolistic megalomaniac maniacal miscreants. With the initiative of a dynamic Ethanol program in America we can show the world that we can still take care of our own and show them that we are still the leaders of the free world rather than appearing as a heroin addicted druggie chasing the next fix of foreign oil. It’s time we detox and Ethanol is the Methadone of foreign energy addiction.

We need to take one eye off of Iraq and plant it squarely on the United States. We need to alleviate some of the concern we have about Iraq and focus on our own domestic needs. If we let oil hit $3 a barrel again we will be putting all of our hard earned cash right into the pockets of countries sworn to the pursuit of our destruction. Would you buy the bullet for the gun your girlfriends ex-husband was gonna shoot you with? Well when we support high oil prices we are doing exactly that. Every $10 or $20 more we pay for a barrel goes right into the Iranians coffer and is spent on the nuclear program we are so bent on stopping them from attaining. How can we tell them to halt all construction when we are financing all of their efforts?
