Re: Rise from 10% to 15% ethanol blending looking more likely

This 10/15 tier system may not be the best solution since the cost of implementation to gas stations and blenders is going to be much higher since they're making/supplying/selling two blends rather than just one.

(I'll move to politics section if discussion goes that direction)

Are you pro-ethanol now?
