Because you use more energy farming the corn and distilling the ethanol
then you get by burning the ethanol you end up with.  It's a net loss!

That sounds just fine to me.
Do you think the labor in farming, production and distribution will replace
the Jobs that are being shipped out of the US as we converse?
I'd rather NOT be buying foreign oil if we could get close to the price with
ethanol and engine oils from castor beans.
