Yes, and the government is doing nothing to help push alternative fuels along. If the government would tax ONLY fossil fuels then the demand for bio-fuels would increase substantially. Demand increases then supply increases and so on. But, until gas reaches a price that is significantly higher than E85, the American public wont get away from what they already do.
Imagine if E85 was $2.85-$3.00/gal ans gasoline was $6.00-7.50/ gallon. People would convert to E85 in a flash. Demand would increase then supply would decrease. Investment companies will notice the demand and build more refineries then the supply will increase until supply and demand is met. Public transportation and better driving habits will be observed and the use of oil will cut at least 25% over night. IMO.
