Here we go again with gas prices

[fabsroman]

I wish I knew something about ethanol production, because it seems like it might be a lucrative field. Of course, it would probably cost millions of dollars to get into, but I would start out refining the stuff myself and opening a couple of fuel stations around here. Of course, I would also offer gasoline in those fuel stations, but there would be big banners advertizing flex fuel/E85.

I don't like the idea that big oil is getting involved in the ethanol production because it seems as though they will do the same thing they are doing with gasoline. With the profits they have made the first quarter of 2006, I seriously think there is some price fixing going on and it pisses me off. I am all for capitalism, but not the least bit interested in monopolies unless they are state run (e.g., natural gas and electric), and I think natural gas now has some competition in my area based upon the supplier I can choose.
