I went to the Iredell County Commission meeting last week. It was a real dog and pony show. Seventy-three people were against the proposed biodiesel plant and about five were for it.
I know we need alternate fuel, but if all the soy bean in the country were used to make biodiesel fuel, it would last about a week. It has to be subsidized at about a dollar a gallon to break even. If it were not for this subsidy, would anybody want to produce it?
Don't you just love farm subsidies?
