54. Archer-Daniels-Midland owns a number of midwest Congressmen and Senators.

Archer-Daniels-Midland owns a number of midwest Congressmen
and Senators.

As a result, all of our gasoline now contains ethanol
(alcohol) that is mostly refined from food-grade corn.

The ethanol itself isn't a bad idea (because, as the poster
above me points out, it replaces the pretty awful MTBE), but
we could derive it from cources other than food-grade corn
except for the problem of ADM's bought-and-paid-for Congresscritters.
