Corn is already the most subsidized crop in America, raking in a total of $51 billion in federal handouts between 1995 and 2005 - twice as much as wheat subsidies and four times as much as soybeans. Ethanol itself is propped up by hefty subsidies, including a fifty-one-cent-per-gallon tax allowance for refiners.

Mais ist bereits die am meisten subventionierte Ernte in Amerika. Zwischen 1995 und 2005 wurden insgesamt 50 Milliarden US-Dollar aus Bundesmitteln ausgegeben - doppelt so viel wie Weizensubventionen und viermal so viel wie Sojabohnen. Ethanol selbst stützt sich auf gewaltige Subventionen, darunter eine Steuerfreibeträge in Höhe von einem Cent pro Gallone für Raffinerieunternehmen.
