250B lbs of corn are used for ethanol in the US. That’s about 1/3 of all corn annually.

Seems like we could forego that and simply put it back into the supply to reduce all food costs across the board

Except that Ted Cruz ran against ethanol in Iowa in 2015 and won the 2016 Iowa Caucuses.
A one off. Iowa primary and ending ethanol subsidies, is almost as bad as reforming social security. The 3rd rail no politicians wants to touch.

We should. Other than high content ethanol fuel (70%+) there’s nothing good that comes from it.

But, I do think an abrupt change would crush middle America farmers. And I’m not sure loosing all the family run farms would be a good thing for this country.
