Flags fly outside the POET LLC ethanol biorefinery in Gowrie, Iowa, U.S., on Friday, May 17, 2019.

Consider the business model of the ethanol industry. It is essentially to get the federal government to force consumers to use their product. That is not a sustainable business model. It creates a cycle of dependence that has been in place since the industry was in its infancy.Renewable Fuel Standard was created by the Energy Policy Act of 2005.
