"E15 is one of those rare issues where everyone wins." Corn and ethanol is the final boss of boomer delusions. The boomer clings to corn as the one irrefutable good thing their generation figured out. Sure the boomer was wrong on race. They destroyed our healthcare and education systems. They bankrupted the country, sold their descendants into debt slavery, then printed money to make the debt worthless. But at least they figured out the keystone of agriculture crops: corn. Corn yields per acre have increased 5.5 times since 1945. We are told by monocultists that this is great and has no downsides. They're wrong. Corn+E15 is as stupid and fake as everything else boomers love. Ethanol is utterly deranged. It's the worst possible use of the land. We burn it in our cars as a direct subsidy to agribusiness scammers. It makes farmland stupid expensive because corn is a taxpayer guaranteed market. That means farmers go bankrupt and leave for the suburbs. It means kids in the suburbs cant afford to go out and buy land to farm. Rural depopulation isn't an accident. Small towns did not die: they were murdered. What need is there for a community of people in an ocean of corn? None. All the monocultists need is their equipment and some Hispanic slaves. So the people packed up and left. Who wants to live around that? Ugly, inhuman, unnatural landscape compared to what it could be. Corn is such a depressing crop. It's as lifeless and sterile as lawn grass. Worse actually because it's drenched in poison that gives people cancer. We have a cost of living crisis. Tons of affordable housing in the country but no healthy culture to plug into. Jobs out there suck. Nobody wants to work at Dollar general and live in a town full of crackheads and alcoholics. If someone is gonna move out to the small town they are gonna want to farm or work in town processing farm goods. We could employ millions of young Americans farming if we got rid of E15. That would create a positive feedback loop where they would get paid to actually make real products, which would lower the cost of living for everyone else, which would incentivize the employment of more farmers, who create more goods. It's the only way we fix the Great Great Depression we are in.
