Obama loves ethanol subsidies - That's change!

Another example of pandering to vested populism. With all the talk about change, he is not that different from any other politician who have come before him!

From the NYT:

'Mr. Obama is running as a reformer who is seeking to reduce the influence of special interests. But like any other politician, he has powerful constituencies that help shape his views. And when it comes to domestic ethanol, almost all of which is made from corn, he also has advisers and prominent supporters with close ties to the industry at a time when energy policy is a point of sharp contrast between the parties and their presidential candidates.'
