U.S. Imports Corn in 2012: Another Strike Against Ethanol From Corn — When Will It Strike Out?
Ethanol from corn is another senseless policy leading to the United States staggering deficit in global trade balance of payments. This is another strike against the folly of requiring ethanol from corn as an automotive fuel.

Ethanol from corn is impractical from its inception. Many studies show it requires more energy to get ethanol from corn fields to car tanks than is contained in the product. Much of this energy is diesel fuel. For those concerned about carbon dioxide emissions; there is no reduction from use of ethanol as a fuel.
