fredron Posted August 15, 2008 Share Posted August 15, 2008 All your farmers are raising corn for Ethanol, not soybeans. Let's see, it doesn't give good mileage, costs the refineries millions to change over twice a year, raises gas prices during the changeovers, and has raised prices on every other agricultural crop, because farmers are raising corn, and raised food prices all over the world.Sounds good to me, lets do it again next year!!!Fredron Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Karen M Posted August 15, 2008 Share Posted August 15, 2008 I don't think it's the farmers fault that gas and groceries are high. On the news the other day they said that food prices will continue to increase:cry2: .Karen M Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I believe it was a wrong move too. I am worried too about soy but a lot of paraffin blends are high too. As a candle maker it appears tuff for both soy and paraffin users. We will just have to hang in there and see what happens. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
