Be sure to check out the part where it talks about Brazils better efficiency using sugar cane for Ethanol. We could do that here too. I f we used sugar cane instead of corn we could make 7 times more Ethanol.That still wouldn't replace gasoline,but it would almost do it.It would get us to where we wouldn't need to import any oil. There are other,better places to look stuff up than Wikipedia,but this gives you an idea.What you need to look up is how much better sugar cane and other stuff is than corn.You could use a corn ethanol plant to make ethanol with sugar cane. There is a certain amount of sugar cane that they waste every year,that will work to make ethanol with too.I think load a train up with sugar cane,like they do coal now and ship it to ethanol plants up north,or if we can grow some fields of sugar cane around ethanol plants,and even if you don't get a double crop like in Brazil,if you get 7 times as much alcohol it would pay to do it.
