being that they completely fucked over people in Thailand with this shit, I hope it fails hardcore.

basically you had 91 and 95.

Now all the older evos and subbies along with sport bikes have no choice but gasohol 95, many ruined engines in Thailand right now.

I think it's fucking hilarious. Ethanol was nothing more than hype anyway.


I just hate to see the farmers get caught up in this when the bottom drops out of the market. Prepare to see stories about farmers losing it all because of over investing in corn. BTW, the same thing happened with wheat during WW1. After it was over the US Government stopped buying wheat and the bottom dropped out. Ever hear of "The Dust Bowl"? Bet you never knew that it was a government program that caused it to happen.

This is what happens when government intervenes with it's awesome ideas instead of letting the market decide.
