Thank God they're gone. I'm sure the repubs will find another way to hand out energy companies billions of unearned dollars. I guess that's what the shale oil push is all about.
Corn has nothing to do with energy companies. There are plenty of Dems that suckle at the Agribusiness teat. They have the presidential election covered just look at what they gave to Mitt and Obama. That is why our government sucks, big business spreads money on both sides, that way you are always backing a winner.
