Orwellian Liberals/Do Gooders in their never-ending pursuit to feel good about themselves continue to fight the crusade to save the environment and crimes against humanity. They never ever consider or do not seem to care how the resolution to the crisis of the moment causes consequences to humanity or to our Mother Earth. Western hemisphere environmentalist in their fight against the use of fossil fuels, have been successful in their initiative to promote government mandates of the production of ethanol and other biofuels. Did these ‘Do Gooders’ ever realize that it takes more energy to create these biofuels than the energy these biofuels produce? I am sure someone in the environmentalist camp wondered why are we producing more waste, which could potentially harm the environment at a faster rate with an inferior energy source? With the tolerant Stalinist attitudes toward dissent, I am sure that they just kept their opinions to themselves to stay in the Liberal camp. Ideology always trumps reality.
The forced production of biofuels has now created a whole chain of negative effects against mankind that to me seem to have cause much more harm than good. First let’s talk about the food supply chain. Biofuels are created from the same resources that we (humans) and animals use as food. As the laws of supply and demand have proved, the demand goes up with the same production (supply), prices will also increase. For example: Corn has experienced the most noticeable rise. Corn, which averaged around $2 a bushel from 2002 to 2006, increased to over $4 per bushel in 2007 and is now over $6 per bushel. Anything that lives off corn feed or anything produced from corn also increases in price. The net result the lower and middle-class the Orwellian Liberals love to care about must now pay more for their groceries.
America being the food basket for the world is not able to sell the same generous quantities of its excess corn, wheat, rice, sugar, soybean, or other food commodities and sell these commodities at acceptable prices to countries that have weak economy markets. Countries like Egypt, India, and Cameroon are very concerned about their food supply feeding their population. Many third world countries are already rationing rice. Here is an example in the Philippines:

Without a sustainable food supply, the human population has to adjust and accept hardships like death and starvation. More rain forests overseas have to be destroyed to feed the local populations. Once again the hungry starving people overseas Sally Struthers loves to shove in front of the television cameras have to endure even further misery so the ‘Do Gooder’ can feel good about driving in their environmental safe vehicle to the next Liberal agenda protest. The only positive result of the food shortages may be that the Muslim community will be too hungry and tired to kill us pesky Judeo-Christian pest on this planet. It is a real shame that there is not an elected political with any testosterone to face the aggressive Islamic conflict against the Western Civilization with hunger instead of military action.
Also without a strong third world population, who is going to produce all the consumables that the Do Gooders enjoy? Affordable clothing, shoes, fabrics to produce Free Tibet banners, poisonous children’s toys, etc. So along with food prices increases, there will be durable consumable shortages because of a unhealthy third world workforce. The Do Gooders have already chased off the local manufactures of durable commodities because government legislation made the free market too burdensome to survive in the Western hemisphere in the name of employee rights and environmental concerns. Would a clothing shortage force individuals to hunt animals that we are to care so much about for their fur? I could see myself wearing a Calico cat fur loin cloth.
I have to scratch my head when I observe an Orwellian Liberal/Do Gooder park their Toyota Prius with the Free Tibet sticker in the rear window at the local Dunkin Donuts shop and complains about the price of the bagel with cream cheese at the counter. There is a part of me that would like to remind this Orwellian Liberal/Do Gooder of the human and environmental consequences locally & overseas of the biofuel mandates and the environmental effects of the harmful metals and chemicals of that car here locally. I do not engage Liberals/Do Gooders in logical conversation(s) anymore. With age, you realize that you cannot battle wits with an un-armed person.
The ultimate end result of using biofuels is that the human population numbers are directly affected. Petroleum products do not seem so bad after all as an energy source.
