ETHANOL GUNK
Now comes the story of thousands of boat owners having to repair or replace their motors as a result of using gasoline containing ethanol. Yet more trouble caused by our fearless mindless leaders in Congress that approved such a mess. Somewhere around seventh grade we are taught that corn eventually turns to sugar. Common sense then would show us that if you put corn into gasoline you are adding sugar. We all know the stories of how to ruin an engine, add sugar.
We, the consumer are ultimately to blame for this. We blindly allow the idiots in Washington to formulate these BS Bills and ram them through while we blindly believe they will lower gas prices. Now we are starting to see the results of this fiasco. Currently 10% of our gasoline may be made up of ethanol. There is a bill proposing it be raised to 15%. Although the reason being offered for boat motors clogging is that they have been sitting while not in use, you can bet it will eventually be happening with automobile and other vehicle engines.
Let’s start speaking up folks. Let the morons in Washington know we do not want corn in our gas tanks. We want it on our tables to feed our families. That’s where it belongs. High fructose corn syrup is crap that should not be legal. Leave one of God’s best creations alone and in it’s natural form. Or at least in as close a natural form as we now have it. Stop pushing the envelope. We do not have to change everything as we now know it. KISS = Keep It Simple Stupid.
