A Truly Free Energy Market

In Brazil, they make fuel out of naturally occurring grasses and sugarcane instead of corn. It’s much cheaper and way more effective. Yet we’ve essentially blocked it from coming into the country by levying giant tariffs on it. Once again, we’re doing the bidding of a few small, powerful interests instead of acting for the greater good.

We need to end those tariffs on Brazil’s bio-fuel pronto and let as much Brazilian-made ethanol into the country as we can. Maybe then, our farmers will go back to growing corn for food instead of a wasteful, taxpayer subsidized fuel and our grocery bills - as well as our gas prices - will come back to earth.
