Long story, but Ethanol is only cheaper to mix with petrol, at the moment, because the tax on ethanol is less than petrol.

Over the next few years, the tax increases gradually to eventually match the petrol excise.[ Govt. doesn't what to subsidize ethanol for too long and lose $$]

At current petrol prices, ethanol is dearer to produce than petrol.[ remember that subsidy]

High Oil Barrel prices is the only way ethanol can be competitive on price.

Well petrol should be less than 20c a litre because we are helping these big companies get rid of there toxic waist from making sh*tty plastics etc . anyway
