Pretty much every study I've looked at that says "ethanol is better" is using an engine designed to run on it. That's awesome that they can get better milage, but there's still 200,000,000 vehicles on the road right now using a fuel they weren't designed for that are getting worse milage.

If the gov. wants to dump more ethanol on us, they should help pay the cost of altering our vehicles to run better on it. They're subsidizing the move to digital broadcast television, why not subsidize something that matters?
