π¨ You think Prohibition was just about banning booze and saving souls? Think again. It was allegedly the ultimate power play by Big Oil to crush a rival fuel forever.
Henry Ford built the Model T to run on ethanol (farm-made alcohol from crops-- renewable, domestic, bad for oil profits). John D. Rockefeller, the oil baron behind Standard Oil, reportedly poured millions into the temperance movement to push through the 18th Amendment (Prohibition).
Why? Prohibition didn't just outlaw drinking-- it banned industrial alcohol production too. Ethanol as car fuel? Dead on arrival. Gasoline? Untouched and ready to dominate. Rockefeller wins: petroleum floods the world, reshaping everything--cars, farming (petro-chemical fertilizers), and even modern medicine (petroleum-based pharma empire via Rockefeller-funded medical reforms like the Flexner Report).
One more bombshell connection people whisper about: Bill Gates' father (William H. Gates Sr., a prominent Seattle attorney and philanthropist) had ties to Rockefeller circles through philanthropy networks. (Gates Sr. helped shape global health efforts echoing Rockefeller's model-- some even call the Gates Foundation the modern Rockefeller Foundation 2.0.) Coincidence? Or the same playbook across generations?
What if the fuel we drive on, the medicine we take, and the food we eat were all engineered by the same dynasty to lock in control?
Mind blown yet? Did this just red-pill you? I'm interestedπ₯

It's a waste of good farmland IMAO. lots of people hungry all over the world and we turn food into fuel.
I was married to a farmer for 30 years. He always swore it took more fuel to grow the corn to make the ethanol, than the crop produced. There are other crops that are far more efficient for ethanol than corn.
Sativa Cannabis for instance, very fast growing.
There is a type of grass (wheat grass, maybe) that you can get 5 crops a year, whereas corn is only one and very costly to grow for ethanol
It means you could make it at home. It's not about paying a corporation but taking sugar water and turning it into ethanol. You should raise your own food if you can, produce your own fuel too. Goodbye petrodollar, hello autonomy. Don't willingly give your power away.
You could if you had gobs of land and equipment and no job..lll
The point is the temperance thing was to monopolize oil. How you can support this and not let the market decide is not conservatism.
If that's your argument turn all public spaces into food producing fields. No more parks, stadiums, parking lots, national parks, etc. Might not be a bad idea but the argument is flawed.
Look at all the good people that die in oil wars and how many people are poor because of the monopoly on fuel.
Also, as a conservative you should always support freedom of choice. A monopoly that was brought on by government mandates should be an obvious NO.
Look at all the ethanol subsidies.
It cant stand on its own.
It's retarded.
I hate subsidies. I also hate forced monopolies.
Trump still supports subsidies and that's why we have big Ag.
Rome wasn't destroyed in one day.....
