Lazlo;i come from a farming family.if you started up from nothing to raise a crop of corn to be used for alcohol fuel first you would need a bank loan to purchase capital goods ,tractors ,harvesters ,silos etc. we are talking millions even on a small scale.just google the price of one harvester if dont believe me.water cost in agriculture almost equal oil .water is blue gold.corn takes more water per acre than rice.then add fuel costs .if you think you get shitty mileage take a 4 ton tractor pulling a plow.now ad in all those laborers our mexican slaves.even slaves cost even though you treat them like shit and bath them in pesticide. yes i was there they work as crop duster lay down the poison. with algae you have none of this.one fifth the water.thats it because it is a closed system.you recover most water.no heavy equipment,no large pesticide .the world population is in a near crisis .once starvation breaks out Hitlers ,Stalins,Maos will make more sense to the starving.this crap of democracy will fall shallow on the hungry .we dont even have democracy in this country we have a representative republic |
