Automaker Tests Show Damage To Older Car Engines From Running On E15 Ethanol

A 2010 decision by the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) to allow the sale of gasoline blended with up to 15 percent ethanol (called E15) has come under fire from many groups. The latest is the Auto Alliance, an auto industry lobbying group representing several major automakers. The Alliance has published a new study saying that up to 5 million cars on the road today may be damaged by the higher concentrations of ethanol.

Shocker, If we didn't subsidize corn to a ridiculous degree in this country we wouldn't even be wasting our time on this ethanol nonsense.

Never, never, never trust the government to do what's best for it's citizens. they need to leave us alone and let the market place work everything out. we are the people and we are smarter than any government. so be it.

We the people need to throw off this government and install one FOR the people.

Reduce the salaries and benefits to a level where only true, dedicated people are more concerned about serving their fellow man than making a profit and writing a book.

Put a cap on campaign donations, excess goes into government fund to be used to pay debts.

Make it easier and faster to recall elected politicians who do not do the will of the ones who elected them.

Charge countries who want us to be their policemen. And don't go there in the first place unless the PEOPLE of that country want us there. Not just the government in charge at the time.

You have to wonder if that is exactly what they are trying to do. With more and more people keeping their cars longer maybe they are trying to get us to continue to support the auto workers. Trying to find a decent used car was hard enough after the cash for clunkers.
