And let s be real, the proposal is not about energy independence. It is a back-door way to expand the domestic market for U.S. corn at consumers expense, after U.S. corn farmers and exports were shocked by the cancellation of more than 1 million tons of U.S. food aid (mostly corn) to countries with poor and undernourished children. Not to mention the catastrophic impacts to U.S. farmers as a result of the president s tariff policies, which greatly reduced corn exports to China.
