Bill O'Reilly of Fox News didn't exactly come out promoting corn ethanol yesterday, but his push for flex fuel vehicles was certainly welcome. O'Reilly, in one of his Talking Points Memos, said the world has learned how to wreck the U.S. economy: through high oil prices.
To help combat this, he suggested we quickly adopt flex fuel vehicles. He acknowledged that it's not an overnight fix, but that if we combine flex fuel vehicles -- which use gas, ethanol or methanol in any combination -- with more domesitic oil production and increased nuclear power, it could save the country in 10 years.
Flex fuel vehicles would give people a choice in their fuel -- allowing them to choose gas, a high-ethanol or methanol blend or any combination. Right now people don't have a choice because gas and oil dominate.
O'Reilly's push for flex fuel vehicles is similar to that of Robert Zubrin, who we blogged about earlier.
