What does 10% ethanol do? It causes you to pay more to drive a shorter distance.

The purported justification for the use of ethanol in that reduces reliance on petroleum is not true. While it may be true that ethanol/MTBE can function as oxygenates, they are unnecessary to achieve current emissions standards. While high compression engines require high octane fuels, it still does not justify the use of ethanol. Politics, nothing but politics.
