Default Is there an economist in the house

LOL, now is the time the "hard" scientists bow down on their knees to the practitioners of the "dismal" science!

>Some top international food scientists Tuesday recommended halting the use of food-based biofuels, such as ethanol, saying it would cut corn prices by 20 percent during a world food crisis. <

Allocation of scarce resources is our bag baby!!!

Oh, and you gotta love watching two groups of scientists battle this political football out....

Can't have infinite growth in a finite system.


Quote from the article:
"But even as the scientists were calling for a moratorium, President Bush urged the opposite. He declared the United States should increase ethanol use because of national energy security and high gas prices."

Fuck Bush. Idiot is almost done, and so are we......
