  • Even with having no ethanol made from corn it won't stop people of going hungry, As long We live in a capitalist society people while still go hungry regardless of how much food their is.. Think about the excess we scrap off our plates or spoil because we didn't eat or didn't sell it, Not only in the way that it's simply what other people could be eating (scraps), But think we only have it because of money!Can you see the disregard for others money creates. The system has worked a while timeup

  • all this bs has raised food and fuel prices.

  • Due to inflationary cost driven up by hi corp CEO salaries & enticing stock payouts the mass marketing of unnecessary items, as well as the outsourcing of most food production to 3rd world countries super-sized industrialized farms & ranches have taken over. The only niches left are specialty food high-value cash crops. The organic, open range & local movements are presently being attacked by corp lobbyist. If big corp wins, we'll b at their mercy.

  • i love how she comes out the cornfield, y? lmao

  • Why doesnt Russia Today show more of RUSSIA?

  • The indigenous people living in Mud huts with bones in the noses had it right. All this advance green technology is a load of shit. KISS = Keep it Simple Stupid.

  • So, according to RT you can solve world hunger with corn alone?

  • Btw I would not want to eat that corn even if they had a surplus at record low prices at the supermarket GMO's kill

  • If only we could capture the flatulence of obese Americans for fuel... it's everywhere.

  • everybody needs to do something with state reps and the president tell the tyrants we dont need their protection from drugs because hemp is tied up in this mess and is not a drug. Besides that the 1937 tax stamp act was ruled UNCONSTITUTIONAL by the supreme court but a year later it was illegal again.obama laughed about weed boostin the economy but hes an idiot an it really would create jobs. Please as many times as you can write these idiots and tell them to stop and educate everyone about hemp

  • Time to make energy from zero point energy.

  • iso is on a rampage this morning!

  • Isofaster and everyone else talking about hemp ethanol and other hemp products ... You guys are absolutely right ! Ethanol and NASCAR ? You guys know that a lot of military missles are propelled with ethanol and bio fuels ... Henry ford new how good hemp was that's why the first model t was made out of hemp plastic and ran off hemp ethanol . Peace

  • corn is not nourishment for people. its called HEMP, you know .... Omega3 and 6, protein, fiber blah blah blah.

  • Another solution other than hemp would be fucking farmers getting their game on, and growing more corn, there is clearly a supply and demand issue with corn. When prices go up, there is a demand, and theoretically, more people getting their own farms would ease the problem

  • Industrial Hemp is the only way. Those who know of it know I speak the truth. Those who think they know of it need to learn more about it.

  • corn in all its modern, adulterated forms is unfit for human consumption anyway.

  • The subsidies mean nothing it is the mandates that must go. Congress must repeal the renewable fuels standard and the RFS2. This whole ethanol/biodiesel mess is from following the pied piper (Al Gore) who now admits his support for this crap was political.

  • Tell the Niggers in Africa not to have an average of 7 Nigger babies each and hunger would not be a problem for them. For thirty years the Niggers have been feed from outside Africa. All of Europe and Russia have problems with their women not having enough children to sustain their countries. Humanitarian folks in one breath complain the world is overpopulated, then in the next breath complain about feeding the needy.

  • @AtlanticCross1 Damn...........someone has a small dick.

  • @AtlanticCross1 Africa has been trying to grow it's own food but the hoarders come by and take it up, or take over farmland that isn't theirs for the sake of profit. If you know American history, even after the Native Americans tried to teach the Pilgrims how to farm they still couldn't do it. After they brought over the slaves from Africa, one of the strengths was they didn't have to teach them how to farm, they already knew how. Now go fuck a white woman since your so worried about children

  • Hemp for Victory! /watch?v=W0xHCkOnn-A

  • @rolandwj Love it when I see others who know of this amazing and beautiful plant. It is the most dangerous plant to the establishment.

  • FACTS: COLD WAR ERA tactics of keeping the farm land ready to produce food in case of Nuclear War while having a usefulness as a fuel also was very important IN THOSE YEARS. Just as MACHINE SHOPS are still kept running all having NON-COMPUTER parts so after a Nuclear War needed parts could be made ASAP. Bottom Line: WAR STUCKS!

  • Yes, that is just what the world needs is more mouths to feed. Let them starve. They are mostly in countries that produce children like rabbits. This is just a way of culling the useless people on this planet!

  • @carl137 Wow..........guess you were lucky to be born in the group of useful people. Humans like you are useless. You spew your bullshit because its easier than looking for a solution. This plant can house us all and we can do it in a sustainable way. Industrial Hemp is the answer. Industrial Hemp can provide for all and do it in a eco friendly way.

  • HEMP is the solution

  • @rrr536 RIGHT ON!!!! INDUSTRIAL HEMP!!! YEAHH!!! I wish the damn fools spewing hatred here would do some damn research instead of saying such and such group of people need to die for the betterment of the planet.

  • 1) The corn used for fuel is hardly edible, it's a different variety.

    2) The US can manufacture all the fuel it needs from trash. Yes, trash - of any type - just like in back to the future (well, almost). It can all be easily transformed into oil.

    Check it out - watch?v=NqSxX2_TjlA

    Of course, this is all stone age technology. We've had ACTUAL free energy for quite some time now, but then how could we create the fake 'global crisis' that will usher in the New Age?

    ;-)

  • Distillers grains - concentrate yummy aflatoxins

  • I thought you people wanted us to stay out of other's countries so why are you getting so pissed about us using corn?

  • well the world can sell us oil, or we can burn our corn and they can figure out how to eat their oil.

  • Well forgive americans for using energy well.

  • So burn less gas. 20 billion dollars can buy ALOT of research, even if it was invested in traditional ICE's it would have been better spent.

  • i would sty out of that corn field, it probably soaked in round up.

  • Government mandates are destroying the economy. Down with these corrupt governments.

  • Corn ethanol is a waste this is as inefficient as it gets, conceived by jackass's operated by jackass's total insiders rip off tax payers and to say green. lol.

  • THE CORN IS GENETICALLY MODIFIED ANYWAY

  • THE GLOBALIST BASTARDS DON'T CARE IF 350 MILLION PEOPLE SUFFER.

    They prefer entertainment over survival [NASCAR]

  • not only is corn ethanol a waste and a mistake - BUT - where is the cry for the nearly 70% waste of calories for feeding all of our corn and soy to cattle and chickens! We could feed a billion people on this food!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • idiotic governments are the only ones that would support ethenol from plants that can be used for food

    Not much smarter than irradiating the planet to boil steam for power..... evovling my ass we are def getting more idiotic.

    Watch the movie Idiocracy it sums up our future perfectly.

  • Hungry for genetically engineered corn? Sprayed with Round-Up produced by Monsanto Chemicals Co. Now its raining Round-Up. Genetically engineerd corn now immune to Monsanto's Round-Up so they have teamed up with Dow Chemical Co. to stack herbicides. Dow is further engineered Monsanto's corn seed to withstand 2-4-D herbicide. Then our gooberment has it sprayed through tail pipes for us to inhale. See StanDeyodotcom 01/29/12 article and lets have a strong response against this insanity for USDA.

  • cut out the corn/the middleman and go to the source -- the sun.

  • @jbrah69 Yeah but THE SUN is free - and the Globalist Bastards can't handle that. That's why they're avoiding solar energy like the plague. They've even suppressed Free Energy research.

  • hemp would solve this problem. the seed is food and the stock can be used for ethanol and plastics (among others)

  • @funnyguise Marijuana isn't food, it can be ate but corn seems more reasonable. Any way my point is we should use hemp to make ethanol. But Americans know if hemp was put in for everyday uses and medical uses things would be easier but the politicians have the cotton companies up their ass's. So we will continue to buy oil off terrorists and pretty much pay for their needs but we are still wasting money on terror also. The worlds leaders have there heads up their ass's

  • wat ABOUT WINE CONVERSION WE NEED THESE CARS BACK

  • fuel there is plenty of food in mexico and canada and dont blame the nascar all other motorsoprt is crap

  • It's probably all GMO corn, and that should make Monsanto happy..

  • Free market!

  • HEMP

  • hemp is 10 times better for making ethanol than corn . it also produces up to 42 barrels of seed oil / acre , which can be used as fuel or to make any plastic products that can be made from crude oil . hemp cleans 4.5 times as much CO2/acre from the atmosphere than a forest.

    hemp makes superior paper , and better textiles than cotton , with FAR less chemicals required. it is illegal in america because the politicians are redneck retards.

  • @isofaster: Do you know who was responsible for the war on hemp? That caused the loss of so many small printing businesses? The great newspaper tycoon William Randolph Hearst. Do some research on what his greed to control the printing industry did to hemp. The same methods are being applied to farming in this country. Farmers being pressured into growing corn instead of vegetables, money before food, when will corporate control and greed end?

  • @Jevezy painfully aware , good to know that the truth cannot be suppressed in the information age , keep it green =)

  • @isofaster nope because hemp will reduce the need of oil which means will reduce the dollar value so more hemp= low dollar price so no hemp= high dollar easy :D

  • @isofaster

    Religious idiots banning a crop the founding fathers grew.

  • @isofaster I've heard from various people over the years that Hemp is better for this and that, (Some claiming it can replace everything, and that falls into the "overboard!" catagory for me), I am curious about the Hemp Ethanol thing. Do you, perhaps, have a page with the facts and stats on it? I'd really appreciate it. And no offense is meant, I just like to research these sorts of things, and having more than one page, or one persons word on it always makes me feel better. Thanks!

  • @BreakerInc "Hemp can be made into any building material, including fiberboard, roofing, flooring, wallboard, caulking, cement, paint, paneling, particleboard, plaster, plywood, reinforced concrete, insulation, insulation panels, spray-on insulation, concrete pipes, bricks, and biodegradable plastic composites which are tougher than steel " hemphasis. net/useschart.htm

    wish i could post links here lol .

  • @BreakerInc : "Hemp biomass can produce electricity from sulfur-free charcoal, as well as ethanol, yet these industries will be the last to develop due to the high value of hemp food. Hemp can easily be made into biodiesel fuel as well." hemphasis. net/useschart.htm , hope this info helps , also watch the video " hemp fuel vs corn fuel " , it is very informative . keep it green =)

  • @isofaster not to mention the fact that it can be regrown yearly, cleans it's own soil, and produces 4x as much as much usable material per acre as trees that take 40 years to regrow...go hemp and way to know your facts!!!

  • @isofaster cannabis oil has even been known to cure cancers! ...just another reason they won't legalize it

  • @isofaster The original reason they stopped farming hemp is because the textiles last to long, so they banned it and swapped it for cotton. Cotton wears out quickly, hence they can sell more because people have to keep buying it.

  • @1ghostronin that was certainly a factor , but don't forget that hemp was poised to replace pulpwood for paper ( W. R. Hurst corp owned millions of acres of forest and most of the news papers in the day, they wouldn't stand for that!) , and hemp oil was about to replace crude oil and of its uses ( Henry Ford built a car from hemp plastic panels that ran on hemp fuel !) and DuPont corp ,oil giant of time , was not going to let that happen, the video "The Union" is a must see.

  • @isofaster Cool thanks will watch. Some interesting points there, I knew about the hemp car, did not realize it was going to run on hemp oil too, what a shame this world is run by corporations.

  • How about if the oil rich countries lowered the cost per barrel of oil ?

    Other countries would not be forced to produce more and more ethanol.

    Oh, that's right, it's easier to blame America.

    The starving countries are near the oil rich countries. Do these oil rich countries give assistance to the hungary ?...... NO

  • @TrickShot1100 Nice typo bro. And sadly, thats capitalism. Youre not supposed to help people in capitalism. The arabs are just doing what the right wingers rant about all the time: following the trends of the 'Free Market'.

  • @TrickShot1100 WELL SAID

  • But it takes a shit load of corn just to feed an animal when we could feed a whole family with that grain or corn instead.

  • And why is their an impression that the US is supposed to produce other countries' food? Just an attempted thought control on those with the attempt to get them to hate the US more.

  • @starlitopensky1 The PROBLEM is that Ethanol is FUCKING USELESS.

  • Fucking food is getting expensive thanks to the environmental nut jobs forcing gas companies to use a certain % of ethanol in their fuel.

    It doesn't help gas prices either.

  • @nubemuffin It isnt environmental nut jobs so much as it is Agricultural corporations trying to get rich from goddamn subsidies. But yes, nut jobs are part of the problem, but they cant get anything done unless the megacorporations who own the government agree to it.

  • We know what this is is simply a transfer of money from the average folk to a small number of connected slime trash.

  • @starlitopensky1 So sad that most people dont see what you and I see :(

  • @LordOrlock So life goes on.

  • I totally agree, no more subsidies for ethanol while food prices are skyrocketing. Corn is a poor food staple anyway, and it is totally unnecessary to use it as a fuel - mileage increase is bogus.

  • Burning food in a time of growing population? THIS IS MADNESS!!!

  • sorry but combustion engines are a dying dinosaur.

  • Um, but as more food as used for fuels, the less food that's available.

  • If you cant afford food, you shouldn't have a whole bunch of children. Is poverty a better reason to be selfish than making a profit?

  • Something that many don't know, the government subsidizes the creation of ethanol, and mandates its use in fuel.

    So the entire process is, and always has been, political.

    Don't forget the subsidies and tariffs for corn growing that makes high fructose corn poison so much cheaper than sugar that it gets used in everything, making America fat and sick.

  • Its about time some one like RT investigated Hemp for fuel and food.

  • Gravity=energy YES WE CAN! WANA BET?

    testla is going to win in the end!

  • illuminatis kill scientists that come with a way of receiving tons of energy from the atmosphere. that's why japan got punished with fukushima

  • What do they care as long as the big bucks come in !!

  • make the use chemical fertilizers and GMO crops illegal.

    Chemical fertilizers cause salt build up in the ground and water, while the pollen from GMO destroys the original genes.

  • We have the technology to provide for everyone on the planet, yet this market system doesn't allow for that. REAL SUCCESS OF A SOCIETY HUH?

  • And the ethanol gums-up engines while south america is destroying rainforests to make palm oil. These idiots in politics don't have the technical skills to address these problems.

  • @htiberian they don't have the technical skills to address an envelope

  • Money is the problem! So much potential for humans without it... maybe someday

  • @gawdiam Very true... The monetary system in all its forms(Capitalism, Communism ect..) all over the world are showing how outdated they've becoming.

    Technical problems can only be soved technically. Politicians and organizations passing around paper or numbers on a computer to solve a food or fuel crisis clearly does not work. In fact it produces bad behavior within those who launder its power we allow it to have over us.

    Money produces dictators, kings and a intrinsically flawed structure.

  • @gawdiam

    no, fake fiat money is the problem. if our money was backed by something tagible there would be no issue. creating money from thin air is the problem!!

  • Food is Fuel.. I don't get the question in the post here.. even when we had an overabundance of food and we were thriving, we still didn't give a shit about people who were starving.. Monsanto is trying to kill everyone who can buy food. GMO corn is a hostile corporate takeover and will vandalize humanity untill its extinct ...

  • The declaration of independence was written on HEMP paper, enough said.

  • GENETICALLY MODIFIED CORN CROPS ? Yeah thst sounds like a good idea and totally sustainable :-/ What a farce, bio fuels are anything but environmentally friendly.

  • WE CANNOT KEEP BURNING OUR FOOD

  • Ethanol is supposed to be a neurotoxin, so probably not best to be used in cars.

    Also I would not be supporting GMO corn as it adds poisons into the environment and the dangers of contaminating the pedigree linage of the plant. It's food-terrorism.

  • @PeekyBooo Hi, good point, do you know when the ethanol is burned in the car what exactly comes out the exhaust ?

  • @organicsuperman If the car is not tuned properly, which is common, then not all the fuel is burnt and the fumes escape. Smelling fuel near busy roads is an indicator of being in high concentrations. This happens in cities or near free-ways. Obviously any car will release the neurotoxin.

    I recall when ethanol was first being used scientists claiming it's a health risk, but few seem to be shouting from the hill tops any longer.

  • @PeekyBooo Thanks, yeah the scientists will all have been bought off ? Well i find the connection you made troubling, is this deliberate ? gmo's are a nonsense.

  • @organicsuperman Add fluoride and chemtrails(aluminium) and you can a very lethargic and dump society, ready to die.

  • @organicsuperman Add fluoride and chemtrails(aluminium) and you have a very lethargic and dumb society, ready to die.

    grrrr I hate YT's lack of edit...

  • Who are the 6 Z O M B I E S who thumbed down this video?

  • Hemp

    

  • 4x hemp produce over corn!

    

  • Hello, I heard Hemp!

  • Hemp HEMP hemp HEMP hemp

  • Why is it up to America to feed the world? I'm sure there are plenty of other countries who can grow food too.

  • More policies for the extermination of the poor and the "not valid". This policy and many others like it are absurd and are part of a hidden agenda.

  • lol keep dreaming. the oil companies wont let an alternative fuel become mainstream, theyll kill to literal keep their profits and we've seen that.

  • the answer for world hunger is contraceptives and/or sterilization. can't feed kids? don't have them.

  • @SylvianLight NO, the answer is incentives for having less babies.

  • I like how we value fuel for all our gadgets and machines more than we value the very fuel needed for life.

  • Grow HEMP for fuel, clothing, paper and more! stop using food crops!

  • americans don't care ...

  • @thelegionary1000 and why should we?

  • Who cares? they have corn mountains in Europe and to slow down growth they have "set aside" land that people get paid not to farm.

  • If companies stop putting corn syrup in everything that would help ease prices on corn.

  • grow Hemp, PLEASE-NOW

  • where are these plantations ??

  • No time to feed the world , have to make money

  • Time to grow HEMP!!

  • But as more corn becomes GMO, it's usefulness as a human food is waning. And as Roundup Ready corn can withstand powerful pesticides, the bees that pollinate cannot. There is a perfect storm brewing.

  • @tenagliac

    Yup. Scary to even think about.

    All by design too.

  • HEMP FOR FOOD AND FUEL!

  • @MrFmmcosta Absolutely, It's a circus, the governments including Russia know that Hemp would solve all the food, energy, pollution, paper, plastic, needs. Takes 100 days to grow an acre, which does the job of 6 acres of woodland that takes 20 years to grow. It's all a game to them, it's about power, money & control. Cannabis would cure over half of the worlds ailments too. However all that nature provides, corporations suppress. You can't patent mother nature.

  • --#_#--> Well I think it's obvious by now that human life is of no concern to these heartless thugs. It's as if the only reason they want us around is to have cheap labour. Makes you wonder why we pay our taxes if only the rich get richer and the rest don't......

  • yup you better feed your car rather than your stomach, but dont worry if man invented food become fuel, than man can also convert crude oli become food lol

  • It takes 1.5 gallons of water to make 1 gallon of ethanol for beets, as opposed to 2.5 gallons of water per gallon of ethanol for corn. Complain about food supply, but water supply is also a factor in today's world. No mention about scientists in Scotland discover a way to turn the by-products from whisky into the latest biofuel?

  • This is stupid, it was proven that poor distribution of food causes world hunger, not having 1/6 turned into fuel... The world actually produced enough food to feed every single person on earth including the poorer reigons in Africa... But again capitalism is a game between the haves and the haves not...

  • USA could save 50% of fuel they consume if they paid tax on petrol at European rate, had small diesel cars popular in Countries that do have people pay tax & stop bombing oil producing countries back to 7th century!

  • A time is coming that americans will drink crude oil. [The remaining comment blanked out by SOPA]

  • I CANT VIEW VIDEOS ON YOUTUBE WHICH ARE UPLOADED FROM THE U.S

    oh boooyyyy

  • Screw Monsanto. Grow cannabis.

    Sort of disappointed by RT on this one.

  • stop shoving 77 different brands of the same crap in stores and enforce pricing rules for those that are left....same result, different % that pays for it. (now bring on the -isms)

  • Corn ethanol subsidies and their compulsory inclusion make fuel prices go up. When fuel prices go up, prices of other goods tend to go up as production costs increase. Reduced corn supply pushes prices up for food as well as cattle is more expensive to breed. Compound this with the fact that the State creates money out of nothing which pushes prices of everything up (disproportionately), you get hit really hard.

    Prices of oil and many other commodities are stable in market currency - gold.

  • the world economy if being controlled by a small group of people. The best way to stop all this savage monopoly is to im[0 characters remaining, please contact SOPA]

  • 1/6 of corn burned in cars and its enough to feed 350 million people. but lets say we stop using it in cars, would 350 million people be getting free corn for a year? no cause that corn was grown for that purpose, ppeople are hungry cause they do not have money for food not cause food doesnt exist. lets use oil instead of ethanol and oil prices go up and everything becomes more expensive

  • That man who says that the rise in corn prices is responsible for the rise in food prices is an idiot

  • @e102ewan you are 15 and already a fool.

  • They used to call it moonshine.

  • Comment removed

  • food hike in prices has nothing to do with ethanol but everything to do with the rise in oil prices, if oil prices goes up so does everthing else

  • Comment removed

  • @gasttheplast yours too...

  • I think russia should start trading there extra oil for our extra corn, then they can feed all the poor hungry people in the world.

  • Comment removed

  • Ethanol is not energy efficient unless u live very close to the source. The ethanol industry is very powerful and super dangerous for humanity. Learn about Permaculture now!!!

  • hahahahhaha...smartasses...hav­e a nice day yenkies

  • Just another reason why every other country hates America - home of the wage slave, land of greed...

  • hemp is food and fuel just saying

  • We all already knew subsidies towards ethonal whould fuck things up.  I think it would be better to mention the farmers who get paided not to grow crops, but I bet Russia has those too?

  • Comment removed

  • why should other countrys be complaining that we are using OUR corn for things in OUR country. everyone wants us out but they still want our help. as long as we have enough to take care or our own people that should be good enough.

  • @Mr332109 maybe you should look at all the homeless people and starving people on your streets... Then look at it from our point of view, where people in africa dont have water nor food, and the US use it for material wishes and not human needs.

  • @MrRichierich91 maybe you should get off of the computer and get a damn job and worry about feeding yourself and your family and not those idiots in africa who live in places that dont provide food and water, there are no starving homeless people in my town because i live in a town full of people with common sence that realize that even shoveling shit pays enough to feed themselves. I love the USA because I can have those material wishes.
